For finance. Cadwalader seems pretty tame these days, not sure about FF. Opinions?

CWT screwed their associates over during the start of COVID. The conclusion isn't stale--it's just further reinforced. With how badly and how quickly they screwed their associates, I would not want to be there during another downturn12YrsAnAssociate wrote: ↑Tue Jan 03, 2023 3:55 pmMy info is very dated, but CWT had such a bad rep when I was in law school that I don't think I could bring myself to go there.
I did 1 case with them about 7 years ago and CWT ran through at least 6 associates during the case. I, of course, have no idea why they left. But I assumed it was because CWT is a dumpster fire.

Just chiming in to agree with the above. I have worked with a few of their finance associates (I am in a different corporate practice at FF) and enjoyed my experience.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Tue Jan 03, 2023 2:50 pmGo with FF. The finance group is filled with genuinely kind people.

This makes it no contest. Go to STB. The only exception might be if you wanted to do Real Estate (in which case FF would at least compete).Anonymous User wrote: ↑Mon Jan 09, 2023 10:19 pmAdding Simpson Thacher to the mix. Does that change things?
