I like Akin Dallas. Great reputation. Easy to work with. Yes, M&A was slammed but I think every firm was. I find their corporate associates to be broader than most.

Don’t know much about RE group. They have some in Dallas and some in Ft Worth I think? Happy to check?

Plenty of other firms hiring in RE right now.

I've heard Akin Gump in Dallas is a sweatshop. However, the same could be said about most of big law in general.

Hello Everyone,

I have 4.3 YOE currently and I was offered Engr II - Full Stack position in VDSI. But after doing some research it seems Engr II is usually for YOE between 2 and 4. Is this correct? Will there be a problem for me if I take up this position with my YOE?
Since I am a lateral entry, I think promotion to Engr III also would take a lot of time.

Also can you please let me know the current designation hierarchy in VDSI?
