Apparently if you get a 3/5 middle bucket review as a second year Associate L.E.K. Consulting your bonus drops from $5,000 to $500? That can’t be true. Right!?

You’d think we’d be trusting our OWN EXPECTATIONS, right?! But no!!! “You meet my expectations but that ain’t worth shit!”

Yes. After your first year in a role, meeting expectations gets you 10% of target in the U.S.

I don't even know where to begin. The target bonus is $5000??? It does not grow between y1 and y2? "Meet expectations", which should be the largest performance bucket, gets you 10% of target??

funny

My friend told me she made $111k last year as a 2nd year at LEK (versus $144k theoretical).

$110k base, $1k bonus, $0 profit share 🤣

Can’t confirm the bonus structure though.

funny

I think it’s worth pointing out that the target performance bonus is *separate* from firmwide profit share

Yes, but most firms combine the two. So saying you get 10% of target in a year we actually get profit share isn’t quite accurate when comparing TC across firms.
