Starting salary and expected bonuses at MM banks?

What are average starting salaries for ER Associates at the MM banks like Piper Jaffray, Baird, Raymond James, etc.? And for associates what is the typical bonus range? What impacts your bonus? Similarly what are ER Associate salaries for like 3-5yrs exp and bonuses?

If you've worked at a MM as an ER Associate and want to disclose your company/salary that'd be really helpful! (maybe pm me if you prefer?)
