Which would you choose?
*Edit* After receiving an offer at the home market, "mid law" firm, I was told I would have a 'very bright future' at the office. I don't know if that means that one day I will make partner but it was nice to hear that. My goals are to make a decent living, pay off my loans and have a decent work-life balance. Long term goals are to be a partner and run shit. With all that said, I know my lateral opportunities are greater at the name-brand firm in NY.
Sorry if this is not enough information, but it is really all I have besides the actual name of the firms, which I'd rather keep private.
Thanks for helping out

Both those billable reqs are bs but i voted midlaw nonetheless because home market, probably less hours, and probably better chance of partnership. But that's all speculative.
