I assume most here have flamed out by now, but many of us were once biglaw. How long did you last?
I'll start -- 29.5 months.

About 4.5 years.
3 out of ~50 in my class are left. One was always a superstar workaholic. One guy is a grinder with a Long Island accent who I don’t think is very smart and the last one is a competent enough black girl without kids so won’t get distracted. I think maybe the black girl will become an equity partner.

10 weeks.
I did a summer for a big firm. I realized day one that everyone there hated their lives and were miserable. I routinely showed up at 10am and left at 4:30pm every day, attended 2 of the 10 summer associate events, and maxed out my $50/lunch budget pretty much every day. I was just there to collect my 3k per week. They obviously no offered me, which I couldn't have cared less about.

Approx 4 years at a classic biglaw firm, followed by 2 and counting at a “boutique” doing the same shit. First 4 years were fucking awful. Last two have been pretty alright. In part, the difference is because of the people. Your experience in biglaw is largely determined by whether the people you work for are decent, sane, people. Your odds of that are not great, maybe 50/50.
Also, if you are able to save a little money and buy your own place, it gets more bearable (I am in secondary market, so this was possible). The stress is fucking insane when you are working 20 hour days and getting chewed out and having weekend trips blown up, but you need the job to eat and go back every night to your shitty apartment. Once you have like 12 months of living expenses saved up in liquid assets and get yourself into a comfortable living situation, it’s much easier to keep perspective and let shit roll off your back.

Fuck it. Don't care if this out;s me, I'll fight that fucker any day of the week. Slap his bitch tits and get his wife pregnant.
Him: "Oh...well, my colleagues at Latham/Kirkland/Simpson would always say that the partner was their client. I was like, "that may be your client, but the GC of [Shitty FTSE 100] is my client.""
Me: "Oh..nice. so you got a percentage of the fees collected, right?"
Him: "well...no..but I was up for partner but decided that biglaw wasn't for me anymore. So I came inhouse with [MEGA CORP]"
