Monthly Income and Tax Rates

I'm trying to figure out what the monthly income is going to be for a first-year analyst. If you are taking home 5000 a month or 60000 a year, what can I expect to take home per month, assuming you have no other income coming in?

I've got the tax rate down to about 28.5% on the monthly income, which is: Federal: 18.91% New York State: 6.18% New York City: 3.45%

This brings your monthly income down to about $3500. Am I correct in assuming this? What have current first-years seen as their effective tax rates?
