Salary evolution at MBB

I was wondering how salaries in MBB MC evolve over time.

It would be great if people on this board could add to my limited knowledge demonstrated below.

Format: Role BCG (Mckinsey); package (including minimum bonus) in K$; average salary raises over time; average duration of role

  1. Associate (Business Analyst); 55$; +5% every 6 months; 2 years
  2. Consultant (Associate); 135$; +5% (?) every 6 months; 2 years
  3. Project Leader (Engagement Manager); 200$ (?); ... ; 2 years
  4. Principal (principal); 300$ (?); ... ; 3 years
  5. Partner; first year pay around 500$?

Thanks.
