Wachtell (NYC) vs Munger (LA) vs Covington (DC) vs WilmerHale (DC)
Need help choosing between 2L offers. Likely interested in litigation but really no strong preference beyond that. No geographical ties to any of the locations with slight preference against NYC. Which would open the most doors in the future? My current debate is between $$$ (wachtell) and WLB / pro-bono (Wilmer / Munger) and DC prestige (Covington). Curious how others would think through these firms

If you are otherwise agnostic but want the most prestige and money: Wachtell. If you are otherwise agnostic but care about work life balance: Munger. If you really want to live in DC or work in Gov/main justice/etc: Covington for Regulatory, Wilmer for Appellate, probably equal for general lit.
I think I would probably choose Munger in your position because I think their cases are generally more interesting. Wachtell's focus is a little to Del/M&A/Shareholder derivative heavy for me. But Wachtell is more prestigious and you will make more money.
