if you don't then no worries at all -- but i just don't really see the point in people just telling me "good luck" or "you'll see when you join" because of course i will see when i join. i ask because i want to know some things before i join.
in any case, i understand now it may be hard to put into words, and i appreciate everyone's candour.

people who like to give replies like that 'good luck' instead of giving any constructive comment is just a power play on their side. they want to show that they know more, they want to see how u suffer and laugh at u and ultimately, they just dun care much but all they want is to say something so that they can appear important.

It’s good that you’re taking steps to find out more about what you’re getting into.
1. A&G B&F is a tier 1 team and they do some of the best deals in the region. The team produces top notch work, and you will get great training. The SAs put in a lot of effort to train PTs. The assocs in the team are really lovely. Most international firms like to recruit from A&G B&F so it’s a great career launchpad.
2. Hours are excruciatingly long and it’s the worst amongst other B&F teams in SG. It’s not for the faint hearted. Deal flow is extremely high. Be prepared to juggle a lot of files.
3. The learning curve is very steep. You have to be independent to run deals and you fall behind if you don’t pick things up quickly. The partners are nicer than some batshit ones at other B4 B&F teams but can be demanding and harsh. B&F is generally a cut-throat practice area with high client interaction, tight timelines and necessitates an acute attention to detail but it also has one of the best exit options and most sought after practice areas for lateral recruitment.
