That White & Case is #17, while literally going under, just proves that the juniors who vote on this don't know anything.

RIP in Peace to my boys at Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP. Enjoy the V20, brothers. I heard there's more of a community down there anyway.

Well deserved

It’s wild that people still rank Cravath so highly. At this point, it is barely a top 10 firm.

Chambers is a better metric

@A3,

Chambers isn’t much better, very biased.

Anyone run the numbers on biggest movers (up and/or down)?

West Coast litigator, can someone explain why Milbank being v10 is a big upset?

Need to keep ranking them v1 to let them know their tactic is working. Keep being the comp leader milbank!

Link please

Seconded. At another V5

Good message to the rest but should have been v1

If it is v1, we won’t see raises this/next year.

I am on stage 4 of the hiring process for a job as a Sr Art Director for a CPG brand. I was given a project to develop a product launch. The directions are vague. There are so many ways I could take the project but I’m curious what kind of outline and level of depth you expect from a project like this? I was planning on doing research separately & share so they can see what I normally do, and then a deck showing visuals, mood boards, and messaging ideas etc. Does that seem right?

If you do billable work on a given PTO/vacation day, do you still count that day as vacation? Or do you get that vacation day "back"? Or do you only get the part that you billed "back"? (Or some other option.)

Is it important to tell recruiters your end goal when first reaching out? For example, I’m interested in switching from litigation to transactional, but my eventual goal is to go in house. Is that important to mention or precarious? Would recruiters have insight into the best way to make that goal happen?

To all those in management, how do firms that haven’t instituted pay cuts/furloughs manage to do that? Is it because their clients are still paying the bills, because they are borrowing money, because partners just won’t see profit this coming year? Some combo?

My work product is becoming worse and partners are noticing/commenting. I just hate the practice area so much that every time I am asked to do something I just get it done as quickly as possible and can’t be bothered to put in effort. I think I need to quit so I’m not fired for bad performance with a horrible reputation. Am I nuts and should I just wait til they let me go?

To those at V25 firms, how do you view your London office in terms of the quality of work we get and overall importance to the firm? Like is there a perception of us being a step down or ancillary to the big leagues of NYC or not? There’s generally a perception here that L&W and K&E are the only US firms where London can even begin to compete with stateside in terms of generating l work organically but would be interesting to know what you all think? Be brutally honest.
