Agreed re hit or miss. Some of my best friends work there - no, really, I'm serious - and there are some good people there, but there are also a lot of sloppy assholes (not a good image - sorry) and the firm's overall culture seems to be a mix of arrogance combined with "eh, close enough, we probably won't get sued over it."

Given the fiefdom structure, though, you're right - to say one dislikes WSGR overall is like disliking Italy back when it was a bunch of city-states; it would be more accurate to specify which group. Too bad they aren't named accordingly (Venezia, Firenze, Napoli, etc.); if they were, I could just say how the guys in Puglia are a bunch of jerks and everyone could nod in sympathy.

Oh, and Ty? I did interview back in the day, but the guy was such an arrogant ass that it was clear we were not going anywhere.

Ty really wasn't picking on you, it was more of a throwback insult to the old days--don't take it personally. I was half expecting more insults like that towards me--and I certainly would never have even gotten an interview at the Death Star, so kudos!
