The only people I know at those firms are very junior (future trainees or first year trainees) so I doubt they could help you much. My advice would be to just reach out to a middle/senior associate at the firm and try to get on a short call with them - they will know a lot more about this. If you have completed VSs with the firms this should be relatively straightforward, as you can just speak with the people you have build most rapport with.If not, I would try cold texting as many of them as possible (particularly alumni of the same university or people you have other connecting factors with). If you explain you would like to ask a few quick questions to enable you to make a more informed decision vis a vis TC offers, I think you have a good chance to find someone who will take you up on it.
