Market Rate Comp for Corp Dev (5 YEO --> 2 FDD / 3 MM IB)

What is market rate comp for F500 Corp Dev these days in a T2 city (i.e. Chicago, Houston, Atlanta, etc)?

I have 5 YEO (2 in B4 FDD and 3 in MM IB).

Current group I am in is Industrials focused (Baird / Blair / HL / HW) and I am a top performer. Spent ~2 years as an AN and just started my 2nd year as an ASO. I am tired of the grind and working routinely until 2am every weekday.

I've closed over $5B+ in total TEV during my time in banking across 7 deals, so not terrible experience for the MM.
