Sticky splitting situation
I'm lucky enough to have offers at 2 firms that I cannot decide between yet, so I am hoping to split. One is in NY, the other is in D.C. The problem is that for the D.C. firm, I also have an offer from their NY office that I have no interest working for. The D.C. firm has explicitly told me I can split with their NY office if I want, so I'm scared it will be insulting if I ask the D.C. firm to let me split with another NY firm other than their own. Is this a normal scenario? Has anyone done this? I'm not sure how to approach the situation, and any advice would be appreciated!

Re: Sticky splitting situation
It will not be insulting to ask the firm if they could split with another NY firm. Usually the whole point about splitting is to see 2 different firms, not just 2 offices of the same firm.
