This is what you can expect for French PC firms:

Small/lower mid (Capza, Cerea, Kartesia, Eiffel, etc): Analyst 50-60 base + max 50% bonus + 15-30 "participation". Associate 65-75 base, same bonus structure.

Mid/upper mid (Eurazeo, Tikehau, R&Co): 60-70 base, same for bonus & participation. Associate 75-80 base, same bonus structure.

I think Tikehau generaly pays lower than the other upper mids and Ardian is above all those mentioned.
