Hi fishes! My spouse is planning to go to India but we would need to get her visa stamped before coming back. I see that getting appointment is such a huge problem right now. Can we get her visa stamped from a different country? In this case, we were considering Qatar, she grew up there and has her brother there. For what it’s worth she qualifies for Dropbox in India. How do I find out if Qatar works in our case?Deloitte

M&A is more relaxed and has more predictable hours relative to other practice groups.
Where in the world do you work for this to be true
Deals. Deals. Deals.
As in, you like doing deals? What part of it exactly?
Exit opportunities. M&A is generally the largest (or one of the largest) practice group at most Big Law firms, so I wanted the flexibility of having lateral options if needed. M&A can also be a well-rounded transactional/corporate practice, so you can slot into a wider variety of corporate counsel/in-house roles.
More M&A people get promoted every year than many other groups. And deals are cool.
The atmosphere is pretty electric. Lots of money involved, every deal is different and has its own twists and turns, heavy negotiation, always last minute fires, and the feeling of getting it over the finish line is amazing.
Exit opportunities + opportunity to keep my practice broad.
