My friend recently got a job as an analyst (lateral) at a BB, and he was telling me that his base salary offer was 100K. My understanding was that base was set at 70,80,90K for 1st,2nd,3rd year analysts (he just finished his 2nd year at another BB). I know associates at my bank start at 100K base, so not sure whether to call BS on him.

I think Associates are on $125K now?
Friend just moved to an associate position and got that
It's not that far off from the range for 3rd year analysts. In any case, why don't you worry about your own sh*t?
I don't know about laterals but some BBs in Canada offer 90K-100K for 1st year analysts in IBD.
Flake said it perfectly
So the dude may be off by $10K, who cares???
If this is the biggest problem in your life, tell you what....let's trade lives.
wow.. i assume he's a third year but as far as i know 70 80 90 is still the standard. maybe he got a 10k sign on
