How much are corporate finance bonuses at BBs in NYC?

Hi,

I have an offer with a BB for a corporate finance rotational program in NYC after I finish my MBA. It's an elite program; they recruit almost exclusively from top-10 MBA programs.

Anyone know what I can expect as annual bonus levels as an Associate, VP, and ED if I stay in the corp fin program without moving to front office? The starting salary for associates in this program is the same as for starting IB associates, and the signing bonus is about 2/3 of IB's.

It's entirely a back and middle office set of functions - no external client interaction expected.

Many thanks - I'd love to hear from anyone who's worked in corp finance at a BB, even if at an analyst level.
