Looking for some guidance on a new opportunity. Currently a SA in the DDV group with PWC making a little over 100k. I got an offer with an Asset Management firm, which is offering a little lower base, but they have a 50-100% bonus. Does anyone have experience with a bonus heave comp? How likely is it for the range to be met? Without the bonus it just sounds like a lateral move with a small paycut

That’s a pretty wide range. It does little value to flash a high top-end if very few are actually getting there. I’d see if you can find out what the spread was for bonuses at that level last year and how the bonus is calculated. Something like A&Ms system, which is pretty transparent, seems great here in comparison to relying on the generosity of a black box. I would consider it a bit of a red flag if they don’t share this info.

I’d prefer a higher base as percent of comp, all things being equal. Ultimately the lower base higher bonus setup can be beneficial for some because I’ve found most spend around their base, not TC, and thus end up saving more. On the flip side, you’re going to feel it if your monthly paycheck is lower, and you ultimately should be compensated for taking on more risk if there is a downturn (like billables or health of the firm)
