Yeah 125 + 125 is pretty common, however more people than you think (or admit) are taking a pay cut (when coming from banking) and closer to $200-$220 —-> that’s like all my friends lol

My first year was $225K and my second year was $250K at a really well known MM firm (not NYC / SF). I guess I could've tried to go to a different MM or UMM firm that paid me a little more out of the gate in cash, but they made up for it in co-invest and more importantly, work life balance... outside of the 45-60 day sprints when I closed my 2 platforms, I was a solid 9:30 - 7 and was rarely bothered on weekends. So yeah, keep your extra $25K pre-tax...

The bump up from year 1 to year 2 was only 25k? All the rest sounds good but thats wildly disappointing. The bump up in banking is basically a min of ~50k at the same level.

Deal team btw, not ops

I’ve heard 125 + 125 is common for UMM

Seems low. My UMM is paying 180+180 and I know of other UMMs paying around 300K all in. And have heard of several MMs paying anoint 270K all in

Most HRs these days ask for previous salary slips/ bonus/hike letters without even quoting their offer. Should we proceed with what they want? Is it ethical? Any pros/cons

I am thinking beyond just verifying if the candidate is not lying on the current salary but what if they don't even have the budget to what the candidate has asked as expectation.

I have a question, I got a contract role through a recruiter. Initially the recruiter offered the hourly pay rate which was the minimum in my range. Now I got an offer from the company. Now without me asking her she increased the hourly wage to the maximum range I asked. Which makes me doubt if the company increased it or she knew the rate all along but gave me the lower rate ?
