Charlotte IB Comp

Curious as to what compensation in Charlotte looks like for the banks that have pretty large offices there such as Wells Fargo, BOFA, etc. 

If anyone in Charlotte, or knows someone there, could share what bases and avg. bonuses look like across any level, would appreciate it. Also, although I assume lifestyle is the same as doing IB in any other city including NY, if there is a difference I am all ears.

Currently at WF Charlotte. Pay is the same as NYC and my coverage group works very closely with the same NYC coverage group. Moving between CLT and NYC is pretty common. Substantially cheaper lifestyle compared to NYC buddies.

 

Essentially same pay with COL at likely ~60% of NYC… why don’t more people move to places like these?
