How to address seniors?

As a summer or junior analyst, how should I address senior colleagues? Should I use their first name or Mr./Ms.?

And if it is Mr/Ms, what would be the age or position cut off to call someone by their first name? I imagine you wouldn’t call an associate who is just a few years older than you by their last name. What is the industry standard?
