Saw a number on the larger comp thread that I assume was PWP given timing and base #
Associate 2
Base - 200k
Bonus - 255k (mostly cash)
TC - 455k
Said this is not top
Thanks for the data point. If this is not top then seems like bonuses are flat YoY (know someone who got $480k all-in as a top bucket ASO2 last year). A bit disappointing given PWP's been having a record year.
Edit: I stand corrected, bonuses are essentially flat to slightly up.
Guess it depends on the spread between buckets - if comp is flat relative to your data point, that would imply a $25k spread between mid and top. My guess is the spread is closer to $50k, implying $430k for mid last year and around $500k all in this year for As2 top
All speculation^
ASO2 - $490K total
Top
Wow that is huge, congrats
Congrats! How much do you work?

feels like pwp is best fee/comp per capita besides cvp and Q

Wow PWP is goated. Best ROI on the street?

If these bonuses are real they are sick.
And the master thread kind of sucks. Not easy to tell which bank is which.
