just finished first year at a big 5 (one of the "lower" tier banks - scotia/national). bonus ranges were 80 - 110k. Huge year
That's insane. Anyone know if capital markets groups in canada are paying similarly? (ECM / DCM etc)
Numbers were similar at my bank as well.
Good to see juniors being rewarded for the shit they went through for the past year and a half.
Anyone know what RBC paid this year?
