75% of my expected bonus which was 40% of $115k. Market driven
Said another way, 30% bonus with expectations of 40%.
Ah fuck I didn't read this, I got 90% of salary not 90% of my expected bonus. This is also stupid as carry is a larger piece of comp anyway. Asshole.
Bonus was 15% of my base. Asset management at $10B AUM firm.
What's your base, and I guess this is a T1 city? If you don't mind sharing!
$20k bonus on $125k base. Very disappointed.
VP Acquisitions, 8-10 year experience
Leave bro. No matter the size, you should be making at least 200k all-in.
... says the intern?
Analyst in acquisitions, $15k. Which is the exact same amount I got in 2022 and 2023. Two of the associates on my team got their bonuses cut despite great performance. Good to know that individual performance means nothing to the company.
1st Year Associate, Asset Management for $2B+ fund
Target 45%/$60K on $135K base, received 52%/$70K and $10K salary bump
Nice man! Primary market? For a data point, I have an offer from a $20b+ GP in a primary market for an associate role in AM at $150k base, 35% bonus target (TBD this year). 4 YOE
ASO1 here - 75% bonus on $130K base for 2024. Received $25K base salary bump with same 75% bonus target for ‘25
How many years of experience? What type of firm are you at and what is your role?
4 YOE, doing a mix of originations and AM. Spent the majority of the year doing AM work to clear through some challenging deals on our books (think value-add office in tier 2 markets). Firm is a ~$2B REPE platform that launched a private debt arm in 2021.
Truthfully, have been thinking about moving to a bigger fund, but going to stick around because of the comp bump. This year should be interesting - expecting the workflow to be AM-heavy again, but I’ll also be stepping up to help with cap formation.
I did better last year, they shifted things around to make sure I got a 19% bonus of base, but my target was 20-25%. It's 25-30% this year, and I had only gotten a small raise. New team now reports to us and my bonus is the same $ amount as last year, so actually a smaller bonus percentage wise and raises were minimal again. But was promoted. So I'm out soon once it pays. Debating just quitting and looking full time after taking two weeks to go visit family since I had to work through the holidays this year. Also we did better this year than last year.
What have your hours been like?
Oh, it slowed down significantly but took on a lot more responsibility. If something goes sideways, it's now on me. Typical 35-50 hour work weeks, depending on if a bunch of deals are going through at once or not. I was steady 45-50 before, no weekends. I also took over the role and responsibilities about 8 months ago and have not been promoted till now. One of those is, and we will see types.

$50K bonus on $88K base. Base bumped to $100K. Happy with it (REPE/Family Office, HCOL in the sun belt)
