In Reply To: I know that you cannot get much more opaque than information about compensation levels in PE, since it really varies from firm to firm. I have seen posts in the past that talked about what associate level comp might look like, and I know that glocapsearch used to post information--so I do have a sense. But does anyone have any opinions on what should be a baseline (or floor) for associate level comp? Thanks in advance.
Message: A Sep 2000 article in Private Equity Week says: "For associates (i.e. an MBA with zero to two years experience), salaries in 2000 will reach an average of $80,000, or $125,00 with an annual bonus thrown in - a 34% rise over 1999." This is lower than what I hear from the grapevine. Anyone have better data points?
