ANY CHICAGO SOCIETY MEMBERS HAVE COMP SURVEY DATA?

It looks like they are the only society that did a survey this year and are restricting it to Chicago members only

I know St. Louis did a survey. they emailed it to me a month ago

Surveys I have:

2015: Chicago and Madison/Milwaukee

2014: Minnesota

2012: Canada

Here is a link to 2015 Minnesota:

JBrowntown - do you have the link or the file for the Chicago one? Currently in New York, looking for the one with the closest cost of living expenses.

thanks for the link. fun stuff.

@ pasquale3 what do you want to know so bad?

thanks JB. fun info to look at.

Thanks for the help. I moved from a buyside firm in Boston to one in New York and was a little surprised by the size of the cost of living increase and was wondering where I was relative to the median for a charterholder with ~5years experience.

Wait, shouldn’t you be more concerned about the NY compensation survey, then? Chicago is nice and all, but NY cost of living defies reason nowadays.

New York doesn’t do one unfortunatley - Chicago was the closest thing. I figure I can use it as a bit of a guide.

Hmm, makes sense I guess. Since NY finance people are so alpha that unless the survey puts them in the top 1%, they will throw a fit. Better to just not do any survey.
