Some big firms that have only small satellite offices in Austin pay less here than larger offices in hou or dal even though it costs more to live here. What size firm are you looking at?

I’m in Austin. It’s definitely cheaper than costal cities but definitely more expensive than most other cities. Pretty sure most firms are Cravath Scale? That will be more than comfortable. Are you going in house or at a firm?
