Bridgewater Investment Associate Salary

Got a summer internship offer at BW as an investment associate. Trying to figure out what the comp is like FT to figure out how aggressively I want to recruit for other jobs. Based on the prorated internship calculation, seems like it's 98k base, but was wondering if people have an idea for what average bonuses are like for IAs out of undergrad.
