In short, it sucks. Most of my friends, and a good number of our clients, are involved in big-time investment banking. I think Middle America may feel the financial crush before I will, but we're feeling the emotional crush here in NYC.
I have a few friends who have either A) just started working for one of the companies involved or B) worked there as a summer associate/intern, and are now freaking out about their jobs. We talk all the time in law school about the economy, and how it's affected the hiring practice of firms and companies, but nothing like this.

I feel for everyone involved; employees, investors, everyone - just a bad situation.
