High COL city, MF. 120base + 100% bonus.

Not sure that's really a low ball at all. 25% less bonus is 30k, which makes up for MF -> UMM and High COL -> Mid COL in my opinion

Seems kinda low. Fund size?

like

Depending on fund size, how you classify UMM and what your WLB trade off is, doesn’t strike me as overly offensive - market standard is more like $250k for UMM in a medium/high CoL city

like

below on bonus. Usually 120b +100-150 bonus depending on the fund from what I've seen. What's the fund size?

like

Seems about market maybe slightly below. Total comp is usually around $200K based off the reports I’ve read.

Interested in your route, how did you go about the recruiting process? Also what types of technicals were asked?

Feel free to DM me. In general, all the questions were basic questions you’d see in a guide. The modeling test was the most difficult for me personally.

Seems low. PM me firm. Can potentially share more

Same if you want another data point

It’s decent. You can trade up in a year or teo

Certainly not high - if interested ping me with firm name, because fund size and team structure matters a lot

Seems low - I’m going to an UMM fund with ~$280k target tc (base + bonus)

PM me firm and can potentially provide more detail

Def lowball

Thanks all for your help here! Appreciate this community
