The Cornell Partnership just released it's report on M&A Associate compensation. The sample size is several hundreds, so I'd imagine it's fairly accurate.
BAML are the clear winners in this and are pretty much leading the pack in Assoc 1, 2 and 3.
What is surpurising to me is that GS seem fairly off the pace. Are the days of GS paying significantly more than competitors gone, or is this just an anomaly in the survey stats?

6th year M&A earn 200k pounds all-in? Does that seem a bit low to anyone else?
Yeah I was wondering that. Is approx 325k USD all in for a 6'th year M&A guy sound right?
yeah seems like a horrible deal...
