If your desire is to work for a major firm, you'll find some in Philly, but far more in NYC, Chicago, Dallas, SF/LA. The money adds up exponentially in those cities.

75 hours is not too bad. I have a friend in Cravath (NYC) that's doing 100+ right now. I don't know if it's because of whatever he's staffed on or if lawyers cycle, but I also know his total comp this year is very high.
