If you have to be stuck in the office the afternoon before Thanksgiving, the very least the firm can do is announce their year end bonus scale. (Unless, of course, they’ve already announced bonuses, in which case, well done!) The folks at Sheppard Mullin received their good news this afternoon.
As expected, Sheppard Mullin’s bonuses are in line with the market scale set by Milbank earlier this month. Though as their grid below shows, they divide it up by associate levels rather than class year.
In order to be eligible for these bonuses, attorneys must hit the 1,850 billable hour threshold. Bonuses will paid in January of 2020. (Full memo on the next page.)
Remember, we depend on your tips to stay on top of important bonus updates, so when your firm matches, please text us (646-820-8477) or email us (subject line: “[Firm Name] Matches”). Please include the memo if available. You can take a photo of the memo and send it via text or email if you don’t want to forward the original PDF or Word file.
And if you’d like to sign up for ATL’s Bonus Alerts (which is the alert list we also use for all salary announcements), please scroll down and enter your email address in the box below this post. If you previously signed up for the bonus alerts, you don’t need to do anything. You’ll receive an email notification within minutes of each bonus announcement that we publish. Thanks for your help!
