It's always just interesting when a hear such glowing things about V&E online after hearing two friends (different practice areas) experiences. Both have since bailed so things might have changed since


There are, or were, a couple practice areas there that are (or were) notorious for how awful the partners treated associates and how much was demanded of associates. One must also consider the make up of people that have left. Not that they are weak or stupid, but only that a certain pace of life may be expected (really in most law firms) that some people can't keep up. Nothing wrong with that. Priorities lie in different areas for people. I could never work 7a to 9p every day. I'd fricking quit. But plenty of people do it, and not all of them are lawyers.

The stories were from before they left. These were people I knew from law school and chatted with pretty often a while back.

Most of the now Norton Rose people I've met have been through work, so I may be getting a particular exposure to the groups I work with on that side.
