For front office role, I agree BB pays a lot more.
this is what people have been telling me as well. true enough, BB offered me a higher basic, even higher than my expected amount communicated to them while i'm still negotiating with local bank on the basic. in terms of annual package including bonus, it should be around the same or BB pays slightly higher. i was initially after the brand name of a BB in my CV but i guess it doesn't make much difference for BO/MO. have decided to take local bank's offer if package is not too far off due to better WLB and benefits.
