why do you have to be rude for no reason? and anon abuse too. such a harmless thread to be aggressive in

To OP, no, haven’t heard anything yet and none of my friends have either. firms include a few of the V10s/V5s

AFAIK every firm gave offer/acceptance gifts.

Many firms do holiday/finals gifts - there’s an old thread here where people reported getting them. Friend of mine recently received one as well.

Gibson Dunn sent around gift catalog that allows you to choose.

A lot of items around the $150-$200 price point (espresso machine, sound systems, golf accessories, etc.). It was a nice gesture.

Davis Polk gave us sugarfina which I googled and is apparently rich people candy and is VERY expensive. Quite good, though, I enjoyed it.
