[quote=Anonymous]I was at a v20 firm for about 7 or 8 years and left for a mid-level firm. I think the "sophistication and skill" of biglaw can be overstated. There are some truly impressive people there, but there are also lots of ordinarily smart people who are just workaholics. And the matters are the biggest and best, but they're often also boondoggles with waste and unnecessary make-work and artificial deadlines and perfection as the enemy of the good. Being among very good lawyers who have more perspective about the actual work, not just work/life balance stuff, is the #1 reason I'm happier where I am.[/quote]
