MF PE Analyst Program Comp (BX, KKR, WP, SL)

What does BX, KKR, WP and SL pay their analysts? With EVR (and other EBs likely following suit) raising A1 base to 120k, having higher signing bonuses of 25k+ (50k for CVR), and having significant bonus pools (110k at EVR this year), will the MFs raise comp to match?

That was a genuine question that could affect whether or not someone decides to spend time recruiting. Not everyone has the same values and criteria, and money could be a significant factor for some people who don't come from households with financial stability. Even if they aren't planning to recruit, they could have been simply curious about the topic; it would have taken you less energy to just not respond.

EDIT: My comment above was in response to the person's original comment, where they just said something like "Focus on getting an offer first". This happens all the time on WSO, which I didn't feel was helpful nor respectful to OP. They edited their comment later (per my additional comment below but not sure if people saw that).

 

It’s also the right response. The programs pay very well. Maximizing year one earnings is almost 100% the incorrect approach.  

 

Are you saying it was 97.5 base for their summer analysts prorated? or for full time analysts

 

Was the raise across all strategies (PE/credit/infra)?

 

Bain Cap is now 110k base, 100k bonus and 25k signing for first year analyst

 

Can confirm that at least two UMM programs have raised based to 110k

 

Which UMM programs? I don't know a single one which has raised to 110k...

 

Vista Associate 1 comp is 140k base + 160k bonus + phantom carry (varies based on fund performance but ~$50k in your first year). Not sure about exact Analyst comp numbers but my friend said he made ~200k all in as an Analyst 1
