Hi all,
Incoming analyst at MFPE. This question might have an obvious answer, but is there generally a pay increase from first year to second year analyst at MFPE? If so, roughly what could I expect? First year total comp is ~$215k. I know our first year associates make much more, but I haven’t heard anyone mention a bump during analyst years.
I’m honestly just trying to plan out how to pay down student debt, not obsessing over the money or anything. Thanks!

U mind PM? Had a few questions as I am curious as well!
I'm not from the states, so curious if anyone has insights on take-home pay in NYC. If all-in you're making $215k, this site says after tax you're left with $137?? With rent at 4k on average in New York, your savings is like 100k on a 215k income? That's not including anything else other than taxes and rent. Let me know if I'm wrong, hoping I am!
Lol ur not wrong - ur poor in nyc until u hit 500k
Bump - in similar boat with student debt
Would give a million SBs to someone if they had that specific figures for the MF PE programs An1-An2 salaries, after all there’s only like 6? (BX, KKR, Bain, Vista, WP, Silver Lake)
Bump
London figures ?
Bump!
