What is the expected comp increase in base and bonus year over year at a trading firm e.g., Citadel, Jane Street, Two Sigma, HRT? Obviously your personal performance would be a factor but what would be typical for a SWE and/or a quant Dev? What if you're above average?
Forget about TC, enjoy holidays!
They make sure it’s going up for you every year in general, it they think you’re not worth be paid more and more money, you just get fired
Wouldn't know. Haven't been able to stay at a hedgefund for more than 1 year.
Did you leave voluntarily? Did you get good pay jumps hopping between? What about any non-competes?
there's a couple of threads out there about this. use search bar
Also interested, anyone from citadel able to offer insight? Op, tag citadel and JS in your post to get input from those folks.
I've seen 15% or more increases each year. I'd guess that's a bit above average?
Is that all in, including bonus?
Yeah all-in. Most of the increase is actually in the bonus.
