Average 1st year analyst all-in street comp?

Wanted to to get a poll to see what street comp is for vast majority of BB’s/MM. Obviously many EB’s have different comp structures but wanted to compare comp across various banks. Personally, received $85k base (standard) and $35k bonus at my respective bank for 1st year comp, is this normal or am I getting lowballed? What is typical second year all-in comp, third year, and 1st year associate if anyone has that info as well?

No idea, my EB pays around june (so one full year of working) so never had to worry about that. So by the time bonus time roles around my salary should be be bumped (btw starting EB is $95k now at least for some of PJT/Evercore/CVP)

What I do know is that for BB (not sure if all of them do) their cycle is December to align with their fiscal year Q4 reporting. So if you're an analyst at a BB you'll get your stub bonus around Jan/February and then your next bonus will be one whole year after that. You would not get paid during june at all (unless of course your BB pays regularly in June) and excluding signing or one-off bonuses.
