Career Resources
Better than expected given earnings.
Think 110-130% top bucket bonus range.
For all associates (1-3) that aren’t stub?
What was stub?
$75k
I work at Moelis but will keep this high level for anonymity. Most coworkers I’ve spoken to fell in line with the following (mine was in line with one of these as well):
Stub: $75k
ASO1: $185k bonus, $360k total comp
ASO2: $260k bonus, $460k total comp
Bands are really tight and the firm doesn’t convey rankings. Why anyone would work at a BB is beyond me.
Doesn’t Moelis have some of the sweatiest hours in banking though? Surely theres some tradeoff for the substantially higher comp?
How have your hours been?
any idea how VPs shook out?
Really hard to estimate but would guess an average of 70 a week, with random weeks going well above when deals are crazy. The reputation with hours is really overblown / based on experiences from a long time ago.
No real trade off - Moelis just has a culture of compensating their employees above market every year. If you’ve followed financial news / earnings over the years you’ll have heard Ken specifically talk about that the firm makes sure it’s people are paid. That plus being the rare pure play IB with no other divisions, ops or general back office to support lends itself to high comp.
Can you provide any color on which groups are in the Boston office?
Can anyone provide color on AN1 / AN2 bonuses?
Bump
They are paid in the summer, not calendar year cycle with everyone above them and the % ranges of salary mentioned above are generally accurate.
base for A1 ldn?
Anyone have a sense for total comp for 3rd year post-MBA associate? Thx
