I guess expect mid-200 salary+bonus

OK...high 200 to low 300, considering Merrill Lynch is notoriously stingy.

There have been tons of posts about what analysts and 1st year associates make, but why does the info just dry up after that? What's the word on what more senior associates and vp's make? That's a lot more interesting to me.

 

Dont think any BB firms paid 300K for 1st yr Assoc. there may be a handfull of individuals that may have gotten this due to exemplary performance (not sure what that is - I read that as luck and preferential treatment)- other than that middle of the road was 200-220 and the really high end was 250-270.
