I got an offer from JPMorgan for a sw dev position. The offer letter mentions a 100k target end of year bonus but the final payout amount isn't guaranteed and will be up to my manager's discretion. Is this a tactic to lure me in and to get me to sign on? Will JPM actually out this much? Is anyone here familiar enough with JPM to chime in? TC target: ~325k #finance #jpmorgan #jpmorganchase #ib
It’s pretty common at many banks for those bonuses to be “aspirational” … and quite often it comes in under. That said I don’t know specifically about JPM.
Tc or gtfo. JP looks at your year over year total comp, so I think you can reasonably expect to get close to that, and then next year +5%, etc. I’ve been with them for awhile and my bonuses have been fairly consistent and up or flat.
Which office do you work out of?
Manhattan
