V20 NY-based firms in NorCal - satellites?
Posted: Thu Sep 08, 2011 1:12 am
I'm trying to decide whether it's better from a career-standpoint to consider joining NorCal firms which may not actually be that good IN NorCal, yet remain prestigious and well-regarded overall. I'm also contemplating CA-based firms like MoFo or Wilson Sonsini.
I would appreciate any views on Silicon Valley (and SF) offices of:
Weil
Simpson Thacher
Davis Polk
Paul Hastings
Skadden
I'm concerned about quality of life & prestige/career exit options. Ideally I want to do M&A work, possibly also work with VC/PE/startups.
While I intend to remain in NorCal, I'm from the north east originally and may want to go back there at some point.
