2021 First Year Analyst Base Salary Comprehensive List (Updated)

Hello everyone,

It appeared that the previous benchmarking thread has not been updated in awhile, so I thought to create another comprehensive list with any updated info/raises across the street.

Once again, this is meant to be a baseline resource for prospective and incoming interns and analysts, so I've only included first year salaries.

Feel free to post any additional updates I may have missed, I'll try to update every couple of days!

All credit goes to the original analyst who posted the bulk of this initially, I just wanted to clean it up a bit...

I believe TD sent out updated offer letters to returning summer analysts yesterday informing them of the pay bump

 

Heard Tobin co comp is up to $50 (Justine buys her analysts once a year)
