Hi everyone, I’ve been seeing a lot of mixed numbers online for GS London IB compensation, and most of them seem to confuse A1 and A2 figures or combine data from different years.
From what I understand, A1 base is £65k with a £5k sign-on + bonus, and A2 base is £80k + bonus. Would really appreciate if anyone could confirm.
