Bain Capital Associate TC?
Recruiter reached out about an associate level role (1-3 YOE) at Bain Capital as a part of their public markets team. Target base is 75-125k he says. What can be expected for the bonus? Also, what’s the culture there - WLB, progression, interesting work? Thanks. - 115 TC 1 YOE #buyside #pe #vc #hedgefund

I agree base is completely meaningless. Bonus often makes up >50% of comp for associates and >75% for principals

You can't judge comp in PE without looking at bonus. Those numbers are meaningless.
Yes, the recruiter just said “75-125 base plus bonus”. Also, this isn’t for a traditional PE role, but a newer small team focused on ESG.
Rip. Try posting on WSO and see what bonus this group gets paid. Isn't a lot of your comp going to be that? Ask recruiter for last year's comp numbers
