Making street base at a reputable MM firm as an A1. What are bonuses going to look like this year? Obviously market has improved but what should I expect realistically? This job is not worth it for the crazy lowball numbers I saw in 2023.

Expectations in recent threads seem out of touch with reality given deal activity over the past year. 40-50k for analyst 1 seems fair if not generous in this environment. We need to erase 2021 bonus numbers from our memory. Too many students quoting 100% bonuses as the norm.
agree - and the recent datapoints from the past cycle of $70k to $120k for AS1 is probably where the BBs stay
For BB's I'd expect 40-70% bonuses, so probably ~$180k all in (signing bonus, base, eoy bonus).
2021 was such an outlier it really shouldn't be used as a data point.
My MM group is almost having a record breaking year. The record year was 2021 so that'll be hard to beat in the near term.
I'd expect something a little less than 2021 considering the revenue generated thus far.
2021 was actually a normal year pre banking becoming a chit industry. Vps used to make 1mill in 2003 lol
