VC Year end bonus

Wondering if anyone could give some advice to a first year analyst regarding what to expect as a performance bonus. 

I will be given the chance to negotiate, but I dont want to come out as too greedy, nor too cheap. 
As context, there are less than ten people working at the firm, and we had a good (but not great) year.

Thanks for the tips
