IРІР‚в„ўm sure thatРІР‚в„ўs not at all representative of the whole firm, but I went with the firm that I generally liked people at. I donРІР‚в„ўt know anything about STB except that I had a bad experience with their screener interview (turned them down immediately after). To the extent IРІР‚в„ўve worked with tax, everyone seemed very nice and normal. If it matters to you, I think Cleary/STB Chambers rankings for Tax are both Band 1. Not to say there isnРІР‚в„ўt attrition, but people are generally nice. Almost every associate I know went on some sort of protected vacation this summer, ranging from a long weekend to a few weeks. Culture is shifting towards associates (not sure about partners, but thatРІР‚в„ўs irrelevant to us) actually taking vacations, and people not bothering you on those vacations. No official billable target, everyone gets bonus. I donРІР‚в„ўt know much about Capital Markets, but M&A is relatively humane. That's more or less enough to know that you are gonna do basically the same work for basically the same comp with basically the same exit options, so you should probably be looking at other factors like the people and the location unless you legitimately do not care about that.Р”Р„non because I am at Cleary. Yadda yadda if there is something particular you care about

What's the comp structure: I don't think either has bonus requirements, etc. What are they good at: Both are high up in the relevant areas on Chambers, maybe a slight edge to STB for M&A specifically (but e.g., if you were interested in like White Collar this would show you that Cleary is the better choice) What is the pedigree or rep of the firms: Both old white shoe NY firms just a few spots apart on Vault I don't think there is a definitive delineation, but for this particular comparison how I'd think about it: Not to derail the thread (kinda derailing though) but what is the breakdown/delineation for where you consider firms to be enough of 'peer firms' for a decision to be largely a fit check?
