interned there in my final year for 2 months [feb '23-mar'23]. Was lucky to get back to back slots as the intern who was supposed to join in march backed out and due to my good rapport with the associates I got called back. got paid 15k p/m. Was exposed to deals within my first week and the associates were really sweet and helped me with a plethora of things even going as far as including and crediting me in front of partners. The partner was also super chill yet firm when it came to deliverables, also gave constructive feedback. But as they say, all good things must come to an end. Inevitably, in spite of great reviews, wasn't considered for a full time offer (owing to the fact that i was from a no-name private law school) but had a great internship experience there. Would recommend to get hands on experience but not for long term).
P.s. this is just my personal experience for a short 2 month stint and considering that a lot of people have negative opinions about the firm, i would suggest that you apply and find out for yourself. also the entire cohort of associates that was there when i was interning was relatively younger (max pqe was 4) and have all left and moved on to amazing T1 corp/m&a/pe/vc teams and in-house roles. Good Luck!
What are the PPO prospects?
