While I understand the Am Law survey is subject to some distortion due to sometimes small sample sizes and allegations of ballot stuffing.
Nonetheless, this doesn't really surprise me. The folks I know at Miles seem generally pretty happy there. The pay isn't quite the same as Venable and Piper, but the work level seems much less as well.
I know several attorneys there that share time between two offices -usually downtown and whichever one is nearest their house. This is true even of attorneys whose practice doesn't tie them to the regional office (i.e. they don't have local clients). So I can see where the results come from.
