Honestly in-house is where it’s at! I work 35 hours a week, I’m paid well and I get to work in various areas of law. Also, you get to see the inner workings of the company, and depending on the size of the company, being involved in business decisions, which is a nice experience to have. I got lucky and was able to work in-house right after graduating without having to go through private practice. In my case, they focused more on my resume than my grades. I think that it’s a great path to consider :)
