Mid-sized law firms working you “just as much as big law for less pay”? Yes and no. While hours may look similar on paper, in big law you are expected to be available at all hours of the day and the weekend. No substantive work and little to no meaningful mentorship #lawtok #biglaw #lawschool #attorney
