What is the amount/payment timeline for signing bonuses for interns who receive full time offers?
Specifically interested for Associates - in recent years I believe the amount has typically been $50K signing bonus + $10K relocation, but would appreciate confirmation. Also, when is this paid out? Upon signing or when you actually start full time?
Also, should we expect that signing bonuses will be cut this year due to the COVID crisis?

Most BBs will be that structure (50+10) with some boutiques paying more (EVR and Gugg are ~70k all in). They are usually paid in November/December, though I know Citi pays in April.
