Currently at $150k base as an associate at a >$20B aum shop (just under 4 years of total work experience)
Base is lower than what I was making as an associate in banking. We'll see what all in is though. Overall the work is more fulfilling if not more stressful.
For me: 4 years experience, LO at a large bank, $140 base + $60 bonus. Pretty sure I’m underpaid and will be bumped up next year on the bonus (I just joined). Coworker with 6 years experience makes 200+200
$2B l/s equity hf. 3yrs total exp. 140/140
I can’t tell if I’m underpaid, but I get to live in Santa Monica and only work 55hrs a week
^Long only or long/short
Ah, both would be great. I get the Long/Short shops would probably pay more but have more risks associated with the shop staying open during tough times
Single manager equity and credit HF
^ how did you and the fund perform?
What can someone in equity research post MBA expect?
