Bulge Bracket First Year Analyst Take Home Salary

I'm starting at a Bulge Bracket in NYC soon. Standard 70k base and 10k sign-in bonus. How much can I expect to earn after taxes, insurance, no 401(k) contribution, etc.? Trying to plan out my rent and expenses...

Note: I haven't found any posts on this topic recently, so wanted to get an updated response.

Thanks!

Based on your variables, this is probably how much you are going to take home.

~$1,850 every 2 weeks (after federal tax, state tax, social security & medicare) ~insurance should be part of your employment benefit

your bonus is (as a rule of thumb) taxed at 35%.

i'm not smart enough to do everything, but dumb enough to try anything
