VC/Growth Firms Analyst Classes

Thought it would be helpful to collect a comprehensive list of the VC/growth firms that take on analysts in one place. I believe General Atlantic, Insight, and Summit do, but would love to find out about others.

 

Bessemer takes 3 analysts (2 from the summer). Accel occasionally hires 1 analyst (often comes from the summer). Battery Ventures does not have a structured program, but hires 1-2 analysts.

My friend is at GA this summer and says they take 6 analysts (summer only, unless one of them doesn't take the return).

 

Heard around 180k first year for bigger places like GA and Insight, can anyone back me up here? I know for GA specifically, a lot of the analysts go on to become associates and start at 255k at that level.

 

I heard insight is 255 for your first 6 months and it scales to 300 after that
