Like quant work? You get a good base, but the bonus is where the big money is at. Can clear a MM if your strategy performs at some of the better brand places. Of course, they don't hire just anyone either, and if it doesn't work out you're toast because of the crazy noncompetes.

No idea how more run of the mill analytics work looks like at these places. Curious as well.
