Anyone with insight on M&A at OMM, Cooley, Sidley, GDC, or S&C LA? What’s the culture like and is RTO enforced? Billable requirement?

I was at another OMM office for years and LOVED it. I miss it every day. The culture and low billables were so nice.

But I was in lit. And OMM isn’t known to be a strong transactional firm.

S&C is a small LA office; a couple of very difficult partners but good culture among associates; associates seem to be overall pretty slow pace-wise but no bonus requirement

Sidley should be avoided at all costs; every associate I know there is trying to leave

RTO is enforced at S&C LA. Also hard disagree with their office being slow-paced. Every associate who goes there works 300+ months, if not multiple, each year.
