Who plans on taking it, and what do you think are the advantages and disadvantages? Do biglaw employers have a preference?

I plan on taking the Uniform Bar Exam because the state I want to practice in is a UBE state. I am unaware of any advantages/disadvantages or bigLOL employer opinions on the UBE. I'm not even sure they exist - besides if you want to practice in X states, you have to take it. I mean, it's not like you have a choice what's on any state's bar exam, it just IS the bar exam.
I want a UBE state. Maybe SA-types can state otherwise, but I really can't imagine any big firm (in said UBE state, or any UBE state), thinking; oooh, you took this state's UBE exam. We sooo would've preferred you took NY and been ineligible to waive in until you had 5-7 years of practice.
Also high five for water law not being on the UBE.
