The key difference is not how much the hardest worker works, it's how little the biggest slacker does. Try being that guy at Cravath: it won't work, you'd get sacked. At Skadden? Perhaps.
It just depends. Probably on average there are some differences, but in any given case there could be a lot of variability by practice, city, etc.
S&C=work like dog
Eh, comes and goes. Honestly not too terrible.
I moved from S&C to a V15 and did not notice a drop off in hours at all. Ymmv
I don't think Cravath, on average, works materially more than the rest, but Wachtell is for sure a jump -- they wouldn't pay their associates so much more otherwise.
Yeah. I know people at Wachtell and they seem to legit work like crazy.
