A common mantra when it comes to exercises such as the snatch, clean (and respective pulls & shrugs) as well as deadlifting (in my gym and hopefully yours too) is to drive with the hips. The idea is to drive the hips through the bar when lifting said weight.
At my gym I sometimes hear people encouraging lifters who are squatting with the same chant 'drive with hips'.
I'm perhaps not communicating what I want to say very well as per normal. What I want to know is when squatting, do you still drive the weight up with your hips in the same fashion as when doing a clean (for example).
