2021/2022 Big 4 Consulting UG Salary Thread

I have found anything from as low as 60k to as high as 120k for 1st year UG analysts at Big 4 and can't find anything legit. Would be sick if y'all didn't mind sharing !!

Office: (e.g. LCOL/HCOL) Practice: (e.g. Advisory/Digital) $: (Salary + Bonus + Benefits) Additional/Optional: (MBA, Experienced Hire, Lateral Entry, Double Promotion, Travel Perks etc.)

Is this US, incoming hire out of undergrad? Have friends going full time at each MBB and I’m interning at an MBB this summer; no one is getting 110k base from my knowledge. Consensus across firms is at 100k base, but it sounds as if you have a year under your belt
