Not biglaw
It really comes down to the particular practice groups. For example my group is great, love the people, etc but another group in my firm is notoriously toxic
This and it can change rapidly with the addition of laterals. Sometimes toxic people move frequently because they are running from something.
Agree with A1 on DWT. If DWT doesn’t count as biglaw, then maybe none?
Im at dwt (used to be at market paying firm) and this is all accurate. The pay delta once you get to be a senior vs market is very real (especially since the bonus system sucks/ is solely based on exceeding the hours metrics), but its worth it for QOL and long term outlook.

I feel like Alston & Bird touts this a lot. There's so little about them on this app, which I find interesting (and maybe a sign people really are happy there if folks aren't coming here to vent about it?).
