Hi,

 

Based on my knowledge from friends working there, the starting salary range for an associate is around $70-80k as base salary,

On top of which you get a housing allowance in the region of $20k

This also doesn't include the end of year bonus which is performance based.

Hope this answers your question

I assume you already googled for this and came across the main websites that share this info. 

If yes, another thing that you can do is to reach out to a few people who work in the firm now at the same level that you're targeting and have a coffee chat with them. Ask them at some point in the discussion what is a sort of compensation ‘range’ for the role - don't ask for it directly since depending on the firm and region they are not legally allowed to disclose it. 

Here's how you can lead these coffee chats:

This will depend on the specific country.

Please refer to Glassdoor as they are more likely to have this kind of information (although they mix current with old data… take it with a grain of salt).

Hi there,


In addition to the mentioned range above, typically the higher end of that range is offered at the KSA office in the Middle East.

Hope this helps!

They are higher than MBB from what I have heard.

Entry ($100k+) and post-MBA ($150k+) are good baseline numbers to consider.
