Law firms in one line: "Baniye ka dimag aur Miyanbhai ki daring" :P
a and Miyanbhai ka deemag and daring also needs direction and parity nahin toh its just plain chaos!
This article shows CS has a lot of time - to comment on hiring like this one. He never bothered earlier who left and who joined, for e.g. Jayanarayanan (though he was a Director - HR). Non billable hours!
