Depends on specialty group. K&E’s specialty groups are usually not the strongest.

Depends on specialty. Love the inevitable comments on comp when the real difference in comp is at partner level where Milbank doesn't touch KE and never will

KE, with all of its 6th year Associate-turned-Partners has better partner comp than Milbank?

What specialty? Meaningful variation at both firms.

Agree to disagree, having been across from both multiple times. To each their own.

If you care about your career, go to KE. If you’re like the majority of associates on here destined to get pushed out of BL, then Milbank.

Attorney 1’s logic fares no better than the associates he’s mad at for complaining about market.

I have a game I love to play at the airport. I find someone who has the most vague resemblance to someone famous and then insist they are that person.

Like "Oh my God, you're Tom Hanks! I love so many of your movies and I think you are great and so funny in interviews. How are you feeling? I heard you had covid?"

Guy who very very vaguely resembles Tom Hanks insists he isn't. Then I keep insisting he is.

This is a fun way to pass time during layovers.
