Not sure the compensation difference is all that great between WTB and WCB below the partner levels. Maybe 15% to 20% on average? Certainly the top performers in WTB are well within the cohort structure of WCB. Both salary structures are pegged to their markets. The difference reflects largely the longer hours and more demanding travel schedule for WCB.
WTB and WCB disappear in April and are replaced by four operating units. The Global Government Unit contains some operations that were mostly in WTB, though others used to be in WCB. But all of the functional units formerly in WTB are now combined with those in WCB into a Global Capabilities Unit. This is a true blend of WCB and WTB. So is the new Global Integrated Markets unit which cuts completely across the old WCB and WTB lines. The final unit, Global Commercial Markets, contains a portion of the old WCB but much of what was WCB is now moved to other areas.
So the mixing is pretty complete, especially on the functional side. |

The comp certainly varies more than that because WTB has very very wide salary for its various levels, whereas in WCB, eahc level gets precisely the same across a geography. So, all A1s in Europe get precisely the same base salary - it is not possible for some to be on more than others. Similarly for Cs, SCs, SAs an principals. E.g. in the London office, all SA1s are on ??85K (roughly). Conversely, an two L4's of equivalent level in WTB can be of widely different salaries. I believe that those at the top end of a WTB cohort will earn roughly (though still typically less)what the equivalent cohort in WCB earns.
Interesting detail on the plans for the merger incidentally. But when I question how real the changes are for employees, my hypothesis is that thing like career path, remuneration, appraisals etc won't chnage for either group.
Thoughts?
