Hi! First off, I know none of this constitutes legal advice, etc., but I’d like some outside perspectives and advice here.
My wife found out she makes ~25% less that her male co-worker did when he was her level of seniority, and they have the same job responsibilities and the exact same credentials (same undergrad, masters program, etc.); he now makes 50% more than she does, but has 3 more years of WE, so to me that’s not as applicable.
Does she have a claim here? Need any other details?
Pretty broad range! Is the role front office?
ED base is around 160-220k, bonus depends on the role. It can be 30% to 300% with 95% confidence interval
Operational risk management, so not front office
How in the world are you going from senior associate to ED?
Kudos to you for getting a PhD and MBA while working full time 👍🏽
Op Risk is likely to cap bonus in the 80-120% of base! Negotiate harder on your base if you can.
UBS is not a big payer to begin with!
