What is a "venture counsel" at WSGR?

Post by Anonymous User » Fri Nov 07, 2014 10:50 am

I've been seeing a number of younger attorneys at WSGR working as Venture Counsel rather than associates. Does anyone know what this is? Is it a staff attorney position?

Yeah...it's not a good gig. I would avoid. It's a sgtaff attorney position. Youre going to be doing a lot of doc review/diligence/whatever.

ETA: just realized you may not be asking on behalf of yourself. At any rate, it's not a good gig.
