Got an offer and trying to understand how competitive it is. Let know your thoughts, details listed below. Job: Associate SWE Total Comp Y1: 120k Total Comp Y2: 129k YOE: <3 Location: Chicago
601 or 602?
I think it is 601.
Seems good for Chicago, I know some 601s in NYC around there
Seems pretty standard for JPMC although I'm more familiar with TX numbers. 601/602 matters only if you plan on staying in the mid-long term to push for VP (603) and that will be a bigger jump in compensation (30k-40k in base and another 10-15k in bonuses). Promotions to ED/MD are rare and you will see many VPs with over 10-15+ years at that level (It's easier to get in via external hire).
Jp morgan like to pay low so it's pretty low
What would you think would be more in line with market value?
150k plus. 200k+ if you go somewhere faangish or unicorn. fwiw I'm 150tc (base/bonus)at small/mid start up <1yoe. don't count paper money...~7k/yr now prolly
