What are Moelis bonuses like for associates / what is all in comp like? Is it true that there is not much deviation between the buckets? Wondering how they stack up to other EB / BB
Thanks

Wondering how it stacks up for analysts too
Idc
Lol jk
for first year analysts top bucket was ~130k and 110k for middle bucket this year
^ This is correct
Does that include the $20k retention?
Based on what I’ve heard, pretty sure in contrast to PJT / EVR they actually have a wider variation among buckets but top will match the other shops mentioned
Also, unclear what % is deferred (even at associate level) vs EVR, which will matter if you don’t stay
Interesting, thanks. Any knowledge as to what top bucket AS2 could look like?
...everyone always assumes they’ll be top bucket when they should be asking about mid bucket where most end up
Sorry I don’t know
