Is that a stub based on pro rated amount or full 60?
60 for bottom is p solid, makes me optimistic. Daddy Gormon please bless us
When does MS announce for analysts?
UBS bonuses are usually in line with market. Not too much above, not below, but fair/good.
This is simply not true. Top bucket for my group (one of the better ones) was less than that.
What did top get?

mid-bucket
Roommate who just finished A1 got mid 40s. Top bucket product group….
Sounds prestigious.
Will let you know if he decides to show up to work next week
Ouch, that’s really not cool
This is cap, bonuses ranged from 45k-60k bottom to top for all first years. No way you got 60k as bottom bucket
Were people happy with those numbers?
Not at all
Damn, Im at UBS and its sort of a sweat shop here sometimes(depends on the group).
40-50k bonuses!
With their base that basically puts them at FT Partners BEFORE bonus.
It's borderline NYC corp dev comp for recent undergrads (who work 40 hrs week)
hell, HR girls few years out of undergrad were earning 150-160k all in at my NYC startup I was at before banking (this was like 2016- 18 time frame)
that pay is not worth the abuse UBS makes you go through. I'd be quitting if I was any analyst right now. Can earn more working corp dev
and what REALLY sucks is since they got bonuses this summer (vs Feb), the bonuses suck. I got a pretty decent one in February.
Hope you guys all quit. srs.
FTP base is higher than ubs and barc all in comp?
$140k base at FTP
But majority of FTPs analyst class leaves after 9 months.
Is this USD?
