Hi! I am a Registered Client Service Associate at Morgan Stanley PWM, working on a 14 person team w/$3.6 billion assets across the book of business-250+ households. I am approaching my 5 year anniversary with my team & MS next month, & I'm looking for advice. My current salary is 60k without revenue share. At this point, I have not been given a sufficient pay raise for my hard work, commitment, & loyalty to my advisors over the years. How do I ask for rev comp? What's a good amt to ask for?

I’m a CSA at Raymond James. I make $70k comp with an additional revenue share between $30k - $40k depending on the performance. I have 6 years of experience in finance but coming up on 3 years as a CSA.

Base depends on the location, but you should absolutely be getting some kind of comp. I like revenue share the most, but a lot of FAs are hesitant to do that. Your comp should add another $15-20k a year on to your base, at the low end. When you ask… make sure you come prepared with your contributions to the team and know your value. Don’t be afraid to ask for what you want!

Any idea what the other CSAs are making?

Found out a non registered CSA on our team is making 55k with only 1 year on our team....

Wow, you definitely need to have a conversation with your team!! What is your role on the team? How many advisors are there? What’s the team revenue?

My manager explained us that if we want to increase our FA comp we need to show them we bring something to the table. He suggests getting parallel registered so we can revenue share and show we will take the up with the down. That just means insurance license for me.

PA - thats the BS managers give when they cant do anything about it or dont care and the FAs are just flat out cheap and inconsiderate

I have 8.9 years of tech writing experience. How much CTC should I be expecting when I join a new company. My current CTC is 20L pa (18.75 (fixed) + 1.75 (variable)).

Hello, after doing some research I believe I’m being underpaid. About 4 months ago HR did a market analysis for my role. They bumped my salary for about $2k. I’m a mid-level Executive assistant with 6 years of experience and currently supporting 5 executives at a fortune 50 company. One C level and 4 Vice Presidents. I’m currently making $61,000 with bonus included. Based on my research I should at least be making $71,400. I have a check in with my boss tomorrow and I am asking for a raise.

I'm looking to find a job like the Forward Deployed Engineer role Palantir Technologies in the UK.

I have become hooked on finding a job that involves solving the kinds of problems they presented during their interviews. Although I got to the final round my performance anxiety got the better of me (I think I wanted the job a bit too much...). I will reapply after working in a similar company.

Is it "deep tech" / "data science" or "smart enterprise" that they're doing? Any advice welcome.
