Lincoln International: 1st year analyst comp (salary + bonus)? - Rankings?

Does anybody know what the typical 1st year analyst comp (salary + bonus) is at Lincoln International, specifically their Chicago office? How well does Lincoln place into PE?

Thanks.

Investment Banking Short Resume Review / Recap

“My mentor got on at 4 AM to make the session work with my schedule, which says a lot about how much he cares about helping students. He walked through every single point I brought, never rushed me, and made sure I actually understood each one before moving on. He was patient and direct, and he gave me honest feedback when something needed work. I left the call with a clear plan and a lot more confidence than I had going in. I would absolutely book with him again and recommend him to anyone looking for real, practical guidance.”

People tend to think life is a race with other people. They don't realize that every moment they spend sprinting towards the finish line is a moment they lose permanently, and a moment closer to their death.

I don't know the comp, but I know that LI is a pretty decent bank to come from if you're looking to do PE. They have represented us on the sale of a few of our portfolio companies and their work is respected in the MM.

Salary is typical 70k with 10k signing bonus. The culture in Chicago seems very good as I know they do many social events like Cubs games and happy hours.
