How does A1/A2 work for salary?  Are you A1 for a full year, or from start until Jan?

 

We’re pretty similar at my MM bank. AN at 105/115/125, and AS start at 165. Pay bumps across the street were way overdue, and this feels relatively low for a BB nowadays.

Total comp for a 3rd year analyst should be close to $200k no matter what. That’s a decent amount of experience.. and even Corp Dev Associate jobs are paying close to that nowadays. An AS I know at a lower MM bank recently got into a F1000 tech company and is getting paid $220k comp all-in as a Corp dev Associate.

Many sources out there showing ~$200k for first year software engineers at Facebook and like companies. Banks won’t match that, but they also can’t match the tech companies on hours either. If they want top talent to be attracted to finance, they’ve got to continue to step it up in a multitude of ways.

Mind if I ask if this is in NYC and what industry? $220k tech corp dev in NYC seems reasonable but would be surprised if they made that much in a Tier 2 city in a lower paying industry,
