[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked in an agency where it was common for fed lawyers to transition to big law. Most went in as senior associates if they had 5-7 years with the government. If they held mid level leadership positions they went in as counsel, or in rare cases, partner. However, most of the ones who I saw go in as partners held fairly substantial, and in most cases, multiple, leadership positions in government. I am still in touch with most of them and though the hours are not worse than what they had in government, the pressure to produce is enormous in the first few years. [/quote] It's all about who you know in the government after you leave. Your Rolodex is what the firm is buying. [/quote]
