Big Law pay bumps

Buddy of mine joining big law that follows industry standard salary + bonus scale. However do any of you know how the salary bump timing works since i assume you start in the summer? Is it like the banks where you are at the 1st level for 18 months? or are all future salary increases in the summer?

Thanks
