you're clearly not in industry yet.

if you were, you would know that DRD is a swiss verein. means each member firm in each country has different profit pools.

they are no where as prestigious as true internationally integrated firms like CC/Cavenagh and B&M W&L despite slapping on the Dentons name. goes without saying that pay is going to be the same too.

remember that more than half of Dentons 7500++ lawyer headcount are also from china. make of that what you will.

those slightly senior would remember a time when the rapidly expanding DLA Piper was the largest by headcount and was being feted in the legal press to Venus and back as the next big rising behemoth. I wonder how that has worked out now hmmm
