Pwc1 is right. I worked in London and made literally half dollar to pound. I would still argue the quality of life there was better since it was personally more enriching experience. I saw and learnt so much. I could go to Paris over the weekend while here I take the same time to go to south bay from SF city!

Professionally it wasn’t as great but if I had an option, I would definitely consider raising a family in London.

So would £110k be considered excellent salary in London?

Might just be helpful to know which city you’d like to compare to

London is approximately 16% more expensive than Jersey City (sourced from Expatistan)

UK salary is about 30k less than US

And if you’re looking to move there and stay with your firm, expect a SIGNIFICANT pay cut

Thanks D1

I was looking to move to London earlier this year but decided against it. I’m an SA at $101k, and received a $10k bonus this year. SAs in London are at about £50k, and bonuses are almost nonexistent. Decided it wasn’t the best career move for me

If you’re single, hell yeah.

Thanks a lot M1!

I went from $215 to £150 went I moved there 2 years ago

If your MBB salary will be the same or Tier 2. Try upgrade your job

Look at the salary distribution of the population. Graduates are looking at £30s and they flatshare.

I know we are talking about London here, but a similar question about Toronto - how can one compare moving there from the West coast as M1?
