Absolutely much higher in HFT. I worked in HFT, my 3rd year bonus (at age 25) was 1.9m as maybe a p75 member of a high performing team. Even the median, across the front office at that firm, for 2-3 years out was 600k-1m.
Would you be willing to share the name of your firm, and more generally your experiences, here or in a unicast channel?
