Junior associate ? If so probably in the region of ~£85-90k base, and more or less 75-100% bonus on top of that if you have a decent year. Depends massively on the fund though. Also heard some people have very small carry as associate but it is relatively rare I believe.

I have friends in PE on as low as 40k, just be prepared- salaries are around 30% lower than US!

For PE at junior level you are probably right indeed, as it is more attractive than going into a big bank and they know it. As such they might afford to pay a bit less at junior level. That will more than offset in just a few years anyways.

Thanks for the responses. Any insight into hiring outlook over the next 12 months? Have firms been fundraising?

Is it common to offer signing bonuses for product managers? I've only worked in small companies and I'm currently interviewing at a much larger company. I am expecting an offer this week, but the salary isn't quite where I want it to be. A signing bonus of 5 or 10k would make me feel so much better (obviously) but it would put me right where I want to be for salary this year. I'm taking a cut in salary to consider this new job but I like the company and they actually offer benefits

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA
