TC for data scientists at NYC hedge funds?
What does the standard TC look like for a data scientist at a hedge fund in NYC? I have 2 YOE, Bachelors, but lots of strong side project experience. I have final "virtual onsite" interviews with a few hedge funds but there haven't been compensation discussions yet and Glassdoor seems all over the place. The roles all would be working with data for equity pricing and valuations. Current TC ~100K. What ranges should I be looking at and negotiating for in each the base salary, signing bonus and annual bonus? #data #dataanalytics #datascience #tc

ITUN05 OP Jun 15, 2020Any idea on the splits? I’m thinking to aim for $125k base, $20k bonus + relo, and probably bonus will be ~20k
Is this a back office role? I've never heard of a "data science" role at a hedge fund, only quant research roles, which are a bit different.
Yes, it's pretty much all QR-esque roles except I won't be building trading models from what I was told, more so generating data trends and forecasting to be used by developers.
