KKR Credit - Comp & Hours

Hi monkeys,

I may be joining a group that sits within KKR Credit & Markets and I'm looking for hard numbers for a range of what to expect comp wise (broken out base and bonus) for a 1st year Associate through 3rd year Associate. I'm also looking for what to expect as my average work week? Let's assume this would be more of a portfolio management team more so than a deal team.
