A2A - Comp Timing

All, wrapping up my first year at BB in a product group and beginning to think more and more about the potential opportunity to go A2A next summer.

I want to make sure I understand the timing of the $. The below is my understanding:

Summer end 2nd Analyst Year: 2nd year bonus ($85k) Promotion Bonus ($40-50k) Base goes to $150k upon promotion

January the following year, I believe you also receive a “stub” bonus for your first half year as an associate (so would guess $75k).

Is this accurate? If not could someone please provide more accurate detail. Would also love to hear others experience with the A2A process.
