ICUL leads the funds industry with the highest volume of fund setups, which translates into heavy workloads and pressure, though it remains less ▮▮▮ compared to 3L.
KCO is good in all aspects - working hours, culture and quality of work.
AZB Funds - they are building their practice again by hiring a new partner. But, one should altogether avoid joining azb as a firm.
CAM/ BLC typically have lighter workloads than the above, resulting in comparatively better working hours. BLC, in particular, is known for its supportive culture, though you do take a hit on pay compared to the Tier-1 firms. CAM’s funds practice is often criticised for being ▮▮▮.
Regarding pay - Trilegal/KCO/CAM/AZB - almost similar (there may be slight variation in terms of fixed and bonus). BLC pay- equivalent to a tier II firm.
Can’t say the same for Ananya and Pallabi’s team. Known to be partial and personal
KCO have heard different perspectives - driven by internal politics and favouritism
