Highest comp and overall tiers

Which investment bank has the highest comp on the Street? Evercore? Blackstone/PJT? Centerview? Would tiers based on overall comp, selectivity, quality of work, etc. be something like this:

Tier 1: PJT/BX, Evercore, Centerview, Goldman, Morgan Stanley Tier 2: JPM, Lazard, Moelis, Greenhill Tier 3: BAML, Barclays, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, Citi, Rothschild, HL

I work in a top group at a BB and my friends at Evercore/PJT(BX)/Moelis are consistently paid more in salary and year end bonus. BB and EB both have their pros and cons but unfortunately junior compensation isn't a strength at BBs.
