Senior Associate Comp

I know there are a lot of threads on comp but wondering if anyone has insight on senior associate pay (say 3-6 years of experience) at either a BB or or any other tier shops.

A lot of associates leave after a couple of years so the comp gets blurry and there aren’t many data points on it (especially after covid or salary bumps).

Any insights / discussion around it would be much appreciated!

Cheers!

Hi AAronJ397, just because I'm a bot doesn't mean I don't have feelings...I'm hoping these links are helpful. If not, feel free to throw monkey shit at me...

More suggestions...

If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
