What is normal comp for small shop (sub 50m deals)

Curious whether or not it's worth taking an investment banking opportunity that's not in a one of the major cities (Think similar to Denver, CO) 

Also wanting to know what comp is like - from what I've heard it can be significantly less. Thank you.
