[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well done, OP. I'm your polar opposite: T5 law school, graduated with honors, federal clerkship, and I've worked my way down the career ladder to where I'm doing doc review. With a firm, but still. I've stayed with it a few years because the hours are good and my kids are young, but it's past time for me to move on. So, congrats on your career path![/quote] Yep -- this is common amongst my crew. T10 grad. Many/most of us had all the markers of "success" -- magna grads; fed clerks; v20 firms etc. Except almost no one made partner -- some lacked sponsorship/political savvy; some were in departments that just haven't recovered well post recession; some were in firms that have recovered extremely well post recession but partners do not want to share the pie. So then there were all kinds of step down jobs -- vendors; HR/professional dev at law firms; government; etc.[/quote]
