Paris Analyst Compensation

I found old threads stating that BBs in Paris have a higher base than London, some saying it's around 90k + 50-100% bonus. While EBs and French Banks (BNP, SocGen) tend to be lower at 65k base with a lower % bonus.

Can anyone confirm what the actual figures are like today for Junior Analysts in Paris? For BBs, EBs and French Banks (Base+Bonus).

For An1 BBs and EBs base is 85-90k. Total comp in a normal market reaches 130-150k (with "intéressement"). Not sure about French banks but would expect much lower.

 

Was an intern at an EB in Paris. Consistant 2am, strong face time culture, seniors shouting at juniors in the middle of the floor. French culture at its finest. At a BB in London now and imo it is less intense albeit it’s a down market

 

It definitely is and that pissed me off. Loads wanna go back to continental europe bc of that. People in madrid also get paid the same for a mech less cost of living

 

GS european offices (Paris, Milan, Frankfurt etc..) is 88k for AN1

Wait, what?? Why is Paris paying so much higher than London? Has it always been this way!


Even better if you move from abroad you can get a tax break …
