Top first years, S&T: 60k, “plus a 20k increase in base.”
Update: another self-described “top” first year in S&T claims it’s more like 75K. I don’t know what to believe. If only someone signing checks from the inside could comment definitively below.

is that good?
If you’re comping goldman to the rest of the street you might as well compare unicorns to leprechauns or schrute bucks to stanley nickels…
I guess at GS S&T not only is every child above average; they are all “top”.
THATS NOT TRUE BESS I AM A TOP FIRST YEAR AT GOLDMAN SACHS AND THEY GAVE ME $300 AND SOME SEAMLESSWEB COUPONS.
What is the exchange ratio of stanley nickels to schrute bucks?
3 – how dare you.
1 Schrute Buck is worth only 5000 Stanley Nickels. 1 Goldman employee is worth at least 25,000 JPs, 47,000 Merrills or 163,824 Bears.
#5 – Seamless Web Coupons???!! If I ever needed validation that my career is a failure that was it.
I dont even know what they look like. Lucky bastard
Fear not, I will take you out of those Seamless Web Coupons at .22 on the dollar if you agree to finance 75%.
Deal?
and it has to be non-recourse
recourse, as always, will be the taxpayer.
#9 bless your generous heart
it’s a pretty standard MER offer, if you don’t like it, wait for Paulson to write you a check.
What are Associate numbers?
What are VP numbers?
What are MD numbers?
Any word on Vice-Chairman comp this summer?
What are 2nd tier Blankfein numbers?
what are back office numbers?
What are Seamless delivery numbers?
Any word on Brian Hunter’s numbers?
all i got was access to goldmanperks.com and 10% off coupon to target
Oh well you want a lot of ###, for that we like to refer you to the homeland dept. in the interest of natl security these numbers may not be released publicly, ’cause that might cause riots!
Bonus included a voucher for naked shorting on all banks except Goldman.
I am a first-year IB analyst who just got his bonus. I just left to go back to my apartment (I live in FiDi) to work-out but I always get distracted by this site though it pisses me off that I can’t comment while at work especially since they track our useage. $75k is the new second-year base. This is probably above-market, as I think it used to be $70. My bonus was in the high $10k’s and I don’t think of myself as a high-performer, though maybe I’m modest!
Are you at Goldman? Do you mean you got a bonus in the range of $70k to 90k? At first, I thought you meant a bonus in the $15k – $19k range and I thought that couldn’t be right. I’ve never heard anyone refer to money under $100k as being a multiple of $10k. Maybe it’s me.
#26, are you retarted? A bonus in the $15k to $19k range? What the hell firm would have tiers that low???? Or what department?
#27…I agree that would be insane. But I agree with #26…who refers to sub $100k’s as a multiple of $10k’s. Very confusing. 25, please clarify.
i would be suprised if 25 was at goldman. dude clearly doesn’t explain numbers and can barely write english.
When i plug ‘fidi’ into google maps it takes me to sudan, maybe the reference is to the outsourced pitchbook dept
if base is $55 or $60k for first-years, total comp could very well be $70-80k, implying a $15-25k bonus … what exactly do retarded first years do for even THAT much money?? fetch coffee and lunch for S&T professionals who are actually making money for the firm??
you people better wise up .. b/c you might be lucky to make $50k in a real job when the rest of this recession hits … that is, if you can find one
finance will shed thousands more jobs, so instead of whining about how puny bonuses are I’d start learning to keep my head down and work

@30, perhaps he means flatiron district though i don’t think i’ve ever seen or heard that abbreviation.
no, geniuses, “FiDi” stands for Financial District.
I am #25. My bonus was a little bit bigger than my base. The actual number is confidential and is specific to the individual so why the fuck would anyone write the actual number. You guys who don’t even know what “FiDi” means or think that an IB would actually pay an IB analyst a $10-20k bonus…wtf? I mean seriously, who is commenting here?

I thought I was doing a public service and then I visit this post again a few days later and I get chewed-up by the unemployed retard crew.

Funny – 2002-2003 bonuses were 15-20k for mid tier IB analysts and somehow everyone was happy to have a job. I can’t wait to see the discussion a year from now… Do I hear salary freeze?
27GV1O Thanks so much for the post.Really looking forward to read more. Really Great.
