We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
I couldn’t be more wrong.
You’d think, considering we get the opportunity to work with forward thinking founders, we’d discuss some updates about Startups. Turns out some of my seniors have never watched Shark Tank.
During break, people just talk about normal stuff like where they went to eat, or where their batchmates are currently working. Maybe a passing reference to startups because someone they know works there.
Sure, during work hours, we might discuss about finalising the SPA to send to the investor. But outside work, there is almost no discussion about their business model or the vision the startup founders have.
Is this the same with lawyers in all other PE teams, or am I missing something?
