2025 Wall Street Compensation Survey

Welcome back - it’s my favorite time of the year - sharing Wall Street compensation survey results.

This year the compensation survey is on Buyside Hub. ICYMI - Buyside Hub is a company I started to create compensation and firm culture transparency across Buyside firms. Everyone who contributed to the survey is a Buyside Hub user.

How do I gain comp data access?

1) Contribute verifiable buyside data and firm insights and gain 12-months of access. We’ve gained an incredible amount of comp and culture insights from buyside professionals thus far. Thank you to those who have contributed. For those who are set to contribute over the coming days, make sure we can verify your information. If we can’t verify your data (generally with a LinkedIn or a firm investment bio link) then we’re going to reject your submission. If you rush through it and don’t provide firm culture insights, we’re not going to give you a full 12-months of access.

2) Contribute verifiable sell-side data and firm insights and gain access through March 31st. Starting soon, all sell-side users will need to sign up for a paid plan to access our platform. So now might be a good time to purchase a monthly or annual plan while we’re running a discount!

3) Sign up for an annual or monthly plan. We’re running lower rates on our monthly and annual plans. If you’re on the buyside I’d actually prefer you contribute, but we have a paid option for folks who don’t want to.

What does a free user of Buyside Hub get? Every user gets access to our free Job Board and Community Board.

We have 100+ roles on our job board, and here’s some of the roles we’ve posted on our Buyside Hub job board.

• Apollo is hiring a Private Credit Liquidity Solutions Trader (New York)

• Ares is hiring a Real Estate Debt Principal (New York)

• BlackRock is hiring a US Private Credit Portfolio Monitoring Associate (New York)

• HPS is hiring a CLO Operations Associate (London)

• PIMCO is hiring a 2025 Summer Credit Research Intern (London)

We’ll be back with a new newsletter next week!

Best,

Harry
