Nothing?

I actually concur with nothing. I worked at WSGR for years across the street from WH and was across from them on one deal, coincidentally with a former counsel I'd worked with at Wilson.

They're here, on the corporate side they are not thought of as a top firm or a powerhouse. That's all I got.

There's plenty of firms that are not WSGR, Cooley, Fenwick, Gunderson etc. They're likely fine places to work.

Also, if you are not from the West Coast, you wouldn't kniw this, but saying San Fran is not a thing. SF, San Francisco, or if you are here in the Bay Area, the City.

San Fran is cringeworthy and just not said.

@A1 are you a native Californian or Bay Area native? People not from here don't know that we do not say "Cali" or "San Fran".
