I'm probably in the minority in thinking that there's no need to thank someone for your bonus. It's earned, not a gift. If anything, maybe thank them for another great year at work or something like that.

I always sent a note - just a few words, not a letter. In the earliest days I did handwritten. After I was more established as an associate I said a quick "thanks" in person and sent a short heartfelt email as a follow-up.

2020 grad M&A/PE Associate in LCOL area thinking about moving to a ECVC/M&A boutique. I generally like the work I do and the people I work with, but I really don’t like the hours and the constant late nights and weekends. Currently on pace for 2250. Boutique I have been eyeing has billable hour requirement of 1500-1600 and comes with a 20-25% paycut. Is this a stupid idea and should I grind it out until I can move in house? Will this ruin my opportunities down the road?

Higher offers at 27-28 with more fixed pay is from contract and hire/fire type companies. Mostly indirect hiring instead of direct employment with the final employer, means higher pay with lower jon security - we get little more pay, companies get the option to let go with ease later!
