Well, I know I would get "whipped" alot more than I do now, in big law. To tell you the truth, my current job is amazing socially and it provides me with a lot of free time, so it's not without it's benefits. But I'm currently on a personal mission to save up enough capital (I need 500K NOK) to get a big enough mortgage to buy my own apartment in the city, which I would be able to do much faster if I worked in big law. Also, my highest grades from law school were in the fields of contracts and corporate, so I'm definitely interested in this line of work. Life would probably be more hellish, though, at a big firm, as I would get bitchslapped and buttfucked every single day by the partners and the rest of the sharks present there, but it's still something I wanna go through to reach my personal goals.
