Hi everyone, I got a recent offer for a senior VP role at MM PE fund (~1.5B AUM) in NYC that was about 400k Salary + Bonus, and 2M in carry. Does that seem low? It’s average according to the Heidrick report, but far below what some others have posted here under the 2021 VP PE compensation thread.

Y’all trying to say it’s a good offer? LOL. Can you please be more specific with the feedback.
Meaning?
What do you mean by senior vp? 3 years “post mba”? I think for that AUM it’s about right; have to factor that in when comparing across offers. Different at say 6bn vs 1.5bn AUM and different at a 3bn fund and a 1bn fund etc etc
