What are the realistic bonus ranges for Analyst / Associates?
Hi all, new to banking but have heard mixed messages from people on the kind of bonuses across junior ranks (within same banks). Just wanted to get an idea about what realistically the bonus bands are. Please separate our cash comp vs stocks/deferred. Format below:
[Type of bank - EB/BB/MM/Canadian/Other - if you can name the bank then even better]
Analyst 1 - Base: $110k, Cash Bonus: [$xx] - [$xx]
Analyst 2 - Base: $120k, Cash Bonus: [$xx] - [$xx]
Analyst 3 - Base: $135k, Cash Bonus: [$xx] - [$xx]
Associate 0 - Base: $175k, Cash Bonus: [$xx] - [$xx]
Associate 1 - Base: $175k, Cash Bonus: [$xx] - [$xx]
Associate 2 - Base: $200k, Cash Bonus: [$xx] - [$xx]
Associate 3 - Base: $225k, Cash Bonus: [$xx] - [$xx]
