For all the overly altruistic PI kids in here, a lot of big law firms have pro bono towards total hours and you can do "PI" for that (some allow a LOT of leeway when choosing these hours).

Make six figures more or less out of law school, see your family, get fed benefits. Could do a lot worse

it's pretty good for a stable 8-5 in the legal field tbh

If you want to be worth eight figures by age 50 then sure, biglaw hours for biglaw pay are the way to do that
Mountaineer99
16:07
i feel like biglaw is the harder route to that tbh

You can go make 200K+ right now working on an oil rig as a laborer lol you can work like an ib analyst or biglaw first year and do that paper grind right now. You people know that bachelor's degrees are a pretty big thing, right? Law is an excellent path, but you need to want LAW and not money as there are a million ways to make as much/be as lucrative.

IB might have a worse work life balance than big law

Yup, but it is far from the only one.

"just be an analyst if you want money" is kinda nuts

IB also pays less unless you get really high up which is hard without burnout

Oil rig workers are busting their ass in North Dakota, lawyers can make $235K sending emails from New York City fresh out of school. Mysteriously, some people prefer the latter.
