The OP was before all the recent Boies news. Though it’s pretty crazy how quickly a firm’s fate can change. Wouldn’t touch Boies with a 10-yard poll these days, but last year the story wasn’t so dire.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:49 pmPatterson's QoL is probably higher than Molo, but the type of work is less varied. I hear good things about Holwell, but also comparatively more narrow in focus. I don't think Quinn needs to be the scary sweatshop place many think it is; you have the freedom to do less work if you're okay with a smaller bonus (within a certain bandwith, of course. Some of the personalities are strong, but at least they are transparent about it).
Not sure why you'd seriously consider Boies Schiller at all, given the shape it's in and the recent happenings there. From what I know, it's only going to get worse there.

My bad for bringing up an old thread, but what's the issue with Boies?? It's one of the firms I'm heavily considering. I'm coming out of a clerkship.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:49 pmPatterson's QoL is probably higher than Molo, but the type of work is less varied.
