Compared to US taxes and COL, and pound devaluation, it seems as though London IBers are getting paid pennies . Well we don't call them europoors for nothing

European bankers surviving on literal poverty wages. Americans can get paid more doing FP&A in the Midwest. 

 

You all need to come across the pond and get paid

 

You're not wrong! Hearing all my friends' comp in comparison is just disheartening. Unfortunately, getting the Visa for an A1 role is hard. The best shot is to work for an American bank in London and then push for the move when you make Associate.

 

How come salaries are much lower in london compared to those in the U.S.? Has pay not been adjusted to keep up with inflation?

 

It was set when the pound was much stronger and hasn’t adjusted

 

Where did you get this from? It seems accurate. Someone I know interning there is getting £45k pro-rata, and I heard that their debt advisory/Rx group pays 10k more than the other M&A groups
