Just wanna get a general sense of the sweatshop-ness of these offices/firms to put into consideration on my decision.

Thanks in advance

Eta: also, anything else to help my decision will be awesome. Thanks!

From a friend who used to work there, heard White & Case DC is a total sweatshop and associate work is also generally less interesting than most other big firms in town.

Which practice area(s)?

Interviewed for IP Lit but want to also try out some corporate projects.

I have heard similar stories. Akin is supposed to have better hours and better bonuses as of late, but there is probably no guarantee of that going forward (with any firm).

Is this true for specific practice areas i.e. international arbitration?
