What gifts have you gotten from your firm? Forum

Gifts for acceptance of an offer, Christmas, New years, holidays, etc. Please name your firm.

Since the corporate simps will come in here to point out that the money we make is in itself a gift. Let me get ahead of that and say nah. Money in exchange for labor is the law. Not a gift. Thanks.

Fenwick sent out a branded Nalgene water bottle, laptop sleeve, and a pretty nice portable charger to incoming associates

Gibson Dunn lets you choose from a catalog for your offer gift. I think the gifts cost around $200 but there were a variety of things you could choose from. Most popular was an espresso machine.

Kirkland. They give you a set of crotchless panties each Christmas (regardless of whether you’re male or female) with a handwritten message from the chairman that just reads “You’ll need these.”

Weil - Nothing.

Not surprised if they learned that from their restructuring work.

It's a nice blanket. Came with a card that said "Warmest wishes for the New Year" or something like that. They found the way to my heart.

Skadden gave us a nice holiday gift last year. iPad pro with a few accessories. It was a nice touch.

Weil rx associate here. From a $35 bottle of bourbon and a cheap blanket last year to nothing this year. Based on this trajectory each associate might owe the department a gift next year.
