Heard from friends that pay is top of street (around £75k for A1) with bonuses also reaching 100%+ at analyst level. If you're good and it's a good year you can bring in 130-140k as an A1-A2. Apparently they are also killing it right now, but they mainly do energy and infra if that's what you're interested in. Pure definition of sweatshop (expect very frequent 3-4am and Sunday work). But I guess if you wanna work hard, not waste time pitching and want to be rewarded, it sounds like a great place to be in

 

Cantor are decent - they have a global remit (not jsut EMEA) and they pay pretty well. It is a sweatshop team but that is just the sector in general - i dont know a pui / energy team that isnt a sweaty, hard desk to be on. Makes me wish i took my offer on the consumer desk... 

No way bonuses are 100% though thats absolute cap - i imagine at best its 60%.

Can anyone confirm this ? Seems high for the brand name

Sounds about right given who their head of IB is. I have a sample size of n = 1, but know a fairly senior guy who reports to him and says that he's a good guy to work for, so hopefully the culture trickles down.
