It's a big area. A lot of work to go around. A lot of money in the right teams.

Long hours, shitty bosses and difficult to get promotions in the prominent firms. The few known people are all still quite young and aren't leaving anything soon. The mid-small size firms require sai kang warriors who can take a lot of ****.

It's easier to make partner if you specialize in a different area of law... but i've always found the people to be interesting and the work rewarding. I enjoy it even though I've been doing this for about 6 years and haven't made partner yet.

To each his own.
