I accepted an A1 role in M&A at Evercore after receiving an offer after being an SA.
Base: $120,000
Sign on Bonus: $25,000
Expected Bonus: $100,000
Total est comp: $245,000
Given these figures as an Analyst, what should I be expecting to pull in as I progress through roles, i.e.: As comp --> VP comp --> Principal comp --> MD --> SMD.
What do you guys think is the average comp among these roles?
Thx
