Even for banking, 200k p.a. is also consider quite a decent pay for someone with 10-15 years of working experience. And the upwards corporate ladder is not easy for every to climb - simple truth is, in any industry, top of the pyramid is always small and tough to get to.
Just to provide what's relevant to this thread, I can share my own employer's corporate level and salary range (annual base) as of 2017. It is one of the top banks from US, one of the systemically important ones
AVP: 75k-150k
VP: 100k-200k
SVP: 150k-300k
ED: 200k-400k
MD:250k-500k
my typical VP colleagues are in their late 30s to early 40s, with 10-15 years working experience. some high achievers reach SVP before 40 but quite rare. MDs are typically those with 20+ years of experience in the industry.
MD level onwards, part of the compensation will be stock. the higher the level, the more of the stock component. our CEO's base salary is 1.5mil, but his total package amounts to 20mil+, majority is stock.
to add more context for expats, for international locations, multiply the above figure with the below coefficients:
New York/San Francisco: x1.5
Chicago/New Jersy: x1.2
Rest of US: x1.1
HongKong: x1.15
Japan: x0.9
China/South Korea: x0.85
Taiwan: x0.7
India: x0.4
Longdon/Frankfurt: x0.8
Belgium: x0.9
These figures are for corporate banking. For investment banking there's another system, generally you multiply these number with 1.5 for same grade in investment banking

bonus varies a lot across functions. back office typically around 1 month, front office can get up to 3minths. direct p&l function bonus tie to performance and can get really big.
typical US firms are thin on bonuses, and they offer annual package instead of monthly

Thanks. So after adjusting for 25% bonuses, the "all-in" figures will be:
AVP: 94k-188k
VP: 125k-250k
SVP: 188k-375k
ED: 250k-500k
MD: 313k-625k

I think salary ranges make sense, but we also know that it can be very hard to get the higher end. Can someone provide the median salary as well? I think this will help others to know the market rate.
