Associate bonus / expectations

Shafted on bonus due to stub period with promotion (ignore title) despite being top bucket and in top group. The range I’m aware of for full year with the bank seems low, but want to sanity check what people are expecting this year. Would much rather switch for more pay if I’m going to subject myself to these hours

Any thoughts on ranges for Asso1/2?
