Not sure which office or country you're referring to...but I work at CG and got paid slightly above street last year.

 

Rothschild definitely top of this list, then maybe Canaccord, B Riley or LionTree depending on what you’re looking for. LionTree has been quite successful working on pretty large media deals.
