Caveat that practice group and office location make a difference, but I’ll say I’ve enjoyed working in the Dallas office. I haven’t encountered any jerks in my years here and though I work a lot (billing consistently over 200 a month) the weekends and evenings are mostly free. Again that will depend on practice area. I have spoken to colleagues in other practice areas that do work late and weekends as if there is no difference between a Monday and a Sunday or 9 am and 2 am.

I have a friend who has been at 4 firms in 6 years. She wants me to refer her to my firm (a v25) but I actually don’t think she’s a great atty and substantively isn’t experienced in the area she wants to work (wants to do tech trans but had experience in trademark prosecution and ip lit). Do I just not submit her? I would hate to work with her.
