Manager Research Career Salary?

Hi everyone,

Most people on WSO are going for IB, PE, or HF, but for those that are doing investment manager research, how much are you getting paid? How does salary increase later on in a career in investment manager research. I am currently interviewing for an analyst role for a large company for their wealth management arm. I asked for $55,000-$65,000 and they said that's within their range. Am I getting lowballed?
