analyst 110 base / ~120 bonus
aso1 150 base, total over 2 year program is 730-760 you can do the math there
typically i see comp broken out year by year at the associate level. is the 730-760 figure a 2-year comp that is a part of a contract? or just how you got ur info.
Is this accurate? Seems pretty high
Bump. Any recent numbers?
Heard it’s quite high as well; plus they get the added benefit of levered fee-free co-invest (75% leverage). Have heard base is pretty low (especially compared to other shops) but they make up for it with very high bonuses.
