Bonuses in Lev Fin vs. M&A?

Hey fellow monkeys,

I was wondering what would be the usual bonus in Lev Fin versus in M&A at a BB or elite boutique?

I think in M&A it can vary between 30,000 and 50,000 but I don't know if Lev Fin is paid the same even though the hours seems to be approximately similar.

Does anybody have insight on that?

Thank you!
