total compensation for an entry level Equity Research analyst?

Hey guys i was wondering what to expect when it comes to compensation in equity research. Are entry level analysts payed the same as IB analysts? how much could i expect from working at a BB? do you make more on the buy side or sell side?

thanks

Somewhere between 90-120k. Could be higher at certain firms but on average should be around there.
