Trying to decide between Norton Rose Fulbright, Fried Frank, and Schulte.

Likely leaning towards litigation. No specific career goals or plans at this time. May want to do gov. work in the future, perhaps relating to international affairs.

Any input on these firms is appreciated! NRF has given me okay vibes. Fried Frank seems nice, and Sculte seems laid back, but worried they're too small and corporate.

(also yes, this is my second post about this, but no one answered the first one- maybe it was too long. Please help!)

I've been looking into Fried Frank as well. FF has been a top 20 most profitable firm since the 1980s, at least. Schulte is newer but also very profitable. Schulte is about ~300 lawyers, FF is ~600, and NRF is massive (3,000 lawyers) and has per partner profits of ~1M versus ~3M for FF and Schulte. I'd choose FF. FF has a Chambers ranked NYC litigation practice, and NRF recently went through a merger (not usually a good thing for associates).
