MM/Boutiques

Currently a senior at a near target school (we're targeted by a lot of middle market and boutique firms in our region), and beginning to be a small target for some of the BB.. they come recruit on campus but give out only btwn 1-3 offers max

Just recently got an offer from a boutique with offices in ny and a couple of other cities, and was just wondering what people's experiences with boutique banks have been like (compensation and otherwise)--my offer would be for one of the other cities and i'd probably be able to transfer to ny if i decide to after a yr or so. Base pay is on par with BB, but was wondering what people's experiences w/ bonuses at boutiques have been--everyone here talks so much about BB but there's gotta be some people at smaller firms also

Thanks
