I was also a senior associate at a V20 NYC corporate shop doing PE work. I quit 6 months ago and never looked back. Was billing 350-400 every month and from what I hear, the associates who remain are still on that pace. Nearly everyone I knew has quit and when I talk to them, they all discuss 400 hour months.

If you don’t believe it, that’s on you. But these busy corp practices are literally breaking not just individuals, but entire teams. I broke down several times during that time. So glad to be out.
What are you doing now?

I left the law. Anymore detail I think would out me as I left for a small industry.
