Quality of Life at Big Firms - for Women and Men

The cover story in this month's California Lawyer is Malaika Costello-Dougherty, We're Outta Here: Why Women Are Leaving Big Firms, Feb. 2007.

Robert Ambrogi picked up an interesting fact:

Women are leaving large law firms faster than men. But men, it would appear, are jumping ship in greater numbers than ever before. That suggests that Howell's statement about the need for radical change at large firms applies across the board. Men, too, are choosing balance over billables.
