I got a shockingly low A1 bonus, RIDICULOUS - despite working hard, pulling all-nighters, and giving up weekends. My team is extremely political, and I made the mistake of keeping my head down instead of playing the game. I just feel bad and I don’t know whether to raise it or not with my MDs or just accept it and start prepping my exit strategy.

Did anyone work for the BORN group, want to know the work culture, perks, job security & WLB.

I have just recently accepted a position as Director of Compliance at a Fin-Tech company here in Naples, FL.. My previous 17 YOE were strictly in the Financial industry.

That seems low to me.

What are realistic expectations for 3rd Year Analyst / Direct Promote Associate bonus range at a BB?
