Munger vs Williams & Connolly for General Lit Forum

Would consider adding Covington LA to the mix -- pretty aggressive lateral activity recently. Firm is definitely committed to growing that office.

What is the deal with this guy's schtick? Is there some "Covington LA" inside joke that I'm unaware of? It kinda reminds me of the playful Schulte trolling a couple years back.

How big could that office possibly be? They're not in the Munger/W&C discussion at all.

It's like someone started a thread about Harvard vs. Stanford and then someone chimes in about adding USC to the mix. That's why I was wondering about the origins of this Convington-LA schtick, which I've seen this poster adopt in other threads.

S/he's been trolling about this for a while, and has been warned, so they're getting a short break.

Just pulled two associates from MTO, so they know who their peers are.

LA-based SA here. Can confirm the market perception of Covington LA and, to a lesser extent, Akin CC as rising powers. Both firms have paid out above-market recruitment bonuses, and they are aggressively looking to grow.

This is hilarious. Hey everybody: the fact that a firm wants to grow doesn't mean that it's a desirable or prestigious place to work. And the fact that a couple of associates lateraled from one firm to another doesn't mean that those two firms are "peers." If anything, it suggests the opposite, as folks usually lateral down.

I'm also LA-based and I can confirm that no one in this city considers either Covington or Akin to be nearly on par with Munger or W&C, especially for young associates. So I'm not sure why they're being brought up ITT.

Lateraling up for sure. Not to mention the lovely Century City views. Have heard great things from other users in this community.

Well, I've got to give the Covington recruiters points for persistence.

It'd be one thing if they mentioned Covington DC. But LA?
