Any one familiar with comp for a Portfolio Associate roll at PIMCO on their mortgage backed securities team? I’m looking at an offer and want make sure I’m in line with the average comp for the company and industry. Only 4 months of experience and offer is 98k w/ 10-20% bonus plus 15k relo/ sign on. Looking at Glassdoor, bonuses seem higher than quoted by the hiring manager. (No written offer yet they say they’re still working on it)

Update, rejected the job offer. Prospective employer refused to make either of my accommodations. So even though they listed the job in nyc, only placing in Connecticut and they wasted my time by not being able to afford my bare salary expectations.
So the recruiter just quietly removed “in consideration” to blank. So god damn unprofessional to not notify me that they aren’t interested in me when I have a pending offer.
Its been crazy lately. They are ghosting like crazy and it drives me nuts. What happened to being professional?
Turns out, the recruiters boss reached out to me earlier this week to give me an update on the timeline, my guess is the junior had no idea what to do.
