Fall Recruiting Open Thread: Boston

When we posted yesterday’s open thread on Chicago law firms, to create a forum for people to talk candidly about Biglaw shops now that fall recruiting season is approaching, we weren’t sure how it would turn out. We worried that the comments would descend into useless trash talk, or that there wouldn’t be enough participants to make the thread useful.
We were pleasantly surprised. Most of the commentary on the Chicago thread is thoughtful and informative.
So we think we’ll do more of these city-focused threads — maybe two or three a day for the next week, until we’ve hit all the major legal markets.
Here’s the Boston thread. Please discuss Beantown’s big law firms — e.g., Ropes & Gray, WilmerHale, Goodwin Procter — in the comments. Thanks.
