Great training and meaningful work, but culture is shifting - Anonymous employee Sheppard Mullin Employee Review

Great learning environment for gaining software skills.

Support at Sheppard needs a total restructure and reorganization to match Sheppard’s new brand.

Market pay. Toxic/mean/ unreasonable people are generally few and far between. Reasonably transparent partner track.

Uncommunicative partners. Also, firm has traditionally sold itself as a 'lifestyle' firm (relative to other big law), but recently there is a concerted push to be like a Latham/Cravath. Leadership is constantly hounding associates to bill more. There is also word of moving 3 day in-office requirement to 4 days.
