Career Resources
I can speak to some degree on this, mostly with a focus on the fund-level / DACH/Benelux operations (not sure if there's significant variance in the GB/Nordics offices). Note I have interviewed early rounds for manager position (typically 6-8 years experience for manager 1).
In terms of comp they are market standard/slightly above for continental Europe (not sure about London/Paris office) on base, but you get exposure to carry early on (senior associate, I believe) which I believe doesn't move up significantly for some time. Salary for senior associates should be around €100k base. Step-up at Manager is also decent on base. Cannot comment on bonus.
Hopefully, that gives a bit of flavour. In any case a good shop to get your training wheels in terms of small deal volume.
