I have offers to join Littler and Ogeltree in Texas. My goal is to go in house in a few years, and I am trying to decide which firm would be seen more favorably when applying for an in house position. Thoughts? Thank you!

Ogletree does not use recruiters so I’m not as familiar with them. However, I don’t see a difference. Both send attorneys in house and L&E is a good practice to go in house. I’d go with where you feel most comfortable, and which people you prefer!

Both in employment group? Littler is marginally better known.
