Only --> Asset Management Comp + Income Progression
Hey Guys,
I'm a second year analyst in Asset Management. I wanted to share a page designated only for people who are currently in or were in Asset Management at some point to share their compensation history for the sake of learning more about what market pay is in various markets as well as how your compensation has changed over the years in this role.
I feel like many comp trackers vary way too much in roles, so I wanted to really narrow it down only to asset management personnel.
This would really benefit us when negotiating future bumps in pay in the future. For starters here is where I'm at.
Current Position: Analyst
Firm Type: Private Equity (other choices --> REIT, Family Office, etc.)
Market: National
Office Location: West Coast
Fund Size: $10B+ AUM
Typical Hours per week: 40 - 50 hrs
Comp:
Year 1 Analyst:
- Salary: $65k
- Bonus: 5% - 10%
Year 2 Analyst:
- Salary $75k
- Bonus: 10% - 20%
Lastly, anyone know what asset management personnel make at the VP, Director, or other top seniority level?
I recently transitioned into REPE from development at a GP. Focusing mainly on AM of distressed/value-add assets with some acquisitions work here and there. Had to be brought on as an "experienced" analyst but have had strong performance so expecting a bump to Associate 1 any day now.
Current Position: 3rd Yr Analyst Firm Type: Private Equity Market: National Location: 2nd Tier City (i.e. not SF/NYC) Fund Size: $20B+ AUM Typical Hours: 50-60 hrs
Comp: Year 3 Analyst: $100K Signing: $10K Bonus: 50-60%
Not in AM anymore, but here's mine as a senior analyst
Position: Senior Analyst Salary: $70k Bonus: 15% Market: National Location: Midwest (not CHI) AUM: $15bn+ Hours: 40-50
Current Position: Analyst (2nd year)

Comp:
Year 1 Analyst: - Salary: $65k - Bonus: 20-25%
Year 2 Analyst: - Salary $72k - Bonus: 20-25%
Lol "east coast gateway" I think you're safe to say DC, Boston, or NYC on here
Current Position: VP Firm Type: REPE Fund Market: Midwest Fund Size: $2B + AUM Typical Hours per Week: 45-50 Comp: - Salary: $130k - Bonus: 40% - Carried Interest in each of firm’s fully discretionary funds + JV’s. On average this typically translates to an additional $125-150k in comp per year (obviously subject to deal performance)
Very nice considering the hours and assuming your Midwest location provides reasonable COL. How many years of experience do you have and how long have you been at the VP level?
Livin like a KING out in Ohio
Current Position: Analyst-1st Yr Market: Southeast Fund Size: $3-4B AUM Typical Hours per week:45-55 Comp- Salary:$65k Bonus:20%

This is great. Bump!

We already have an [expansive](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZG2FIjkUJKxJDgqcc-56E4uLADlr3qe…) Google Doc stemming from [this thread](https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/real-estate-compensation-google-…) as well as a [500+ post thread](https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/what-is-your-compensation-in-rea…) - all discussing real estate comp.
We just want Asset Management only, the comp from other roles aren't what this thread should lead readers to.
Hopefully this ends up being a one stop shop for Asset Management people.
You can sort by role in the google doc.

What was your comp progression like? And did you start at the same firm or worked elsewhere prior?
3 years in advisory + 2 in REPE AM. The comp jump to REPE was pretty significant relative to what i was making in advisory. In all honesty, its a pretty 'cushy' gig for the time being but I'm sure the deal guys my level are crushing it.
How did you make the jump to RE? I’m at a B4 now thinking about going into RE.
What is a B4? I was at in a RE advisory role for 3 yrs out of UG and had some of the basic skills to make the transition to REPE. If i had stayed another 2-3 years after I would likely be going for an MBA/MSRE.
