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.

Anyway, bottom line is that
Meri corp firm ki job lele and main teri in-house
Tujhe sikhne mil jaayega and mujhe aaram mil jaayega
Bunch of people waiting for their salaries with no motivation or tangible goals, who's first words of advice to you are how to cheat the system. And the lawyers here also seem disconnected with the legal field.
Anyways I love the working hours (nil!) and my work life balance is fully in favour of life.
Pay is as good or even better as lower tier 1 or tier 2.
All in all in-house is purgatory, and hell is grinding it through the corporate law firm struggle to reach heaven ($$$). If you're not cut out for hell, purgatory can be your best bet!
