TC for ML/DL/DS scientist positions at top banks?

What's the TC like for ML/DL scientist or DS (real DS, not DA Excel/SQL users) at big banks like Chase, Citi, Goldman, etc..? Looking at VP level. Maybe associate if I cannot make it lol.

If you’re a PhD in ML/NLP and have relevant experience, you can look at around 350-450 TC. (Median) If you’re mainly a Java/Python developer with some exposure to ML implementations, without much financial know-how - 250-300.
