Why are we still talking about C? It's firm where you work almost Wachtell hours for less pay than Milbank. C is no longer a relevant firm when it comes to comp and has never been a leader in associate life. It is not a leader in any meaningful way. It's too cheap to even match a measely one time bonus and has been on the sidelines for far too long. Let's call it Milbank scale and all other firms are non-Milbank scale and falling behind.

You’re still talking about cravath because just about anyone who can get a spot there will still take it over Milbank.

In terms of exit opportunities and overall prestige I don't think Milbank is in the same universe as Cravath. I honestly forget Milbank exists most of the time because it isn't a player in any of the practices I engage with.

y’all are missing the point

this is an incredibly smart attempt to irritate the cravath partners enough to make a comp move🤣

likefunny

They're not on here. Trust.

Essentially everything you said is correct. Cravath is not the most prestigious law firm, it doesn’t pay the most, and doesn’t have the best culture or lifestyle either. I literally can’t think of one area in which it is the leader.

Cause C came out and matched Milbank in 2023 to become market leader again. Matter of time until they do the same in 2024.
