   JD: It is! And I have no idea how they sus­tain those kind of salaries!

   Shilpa: That’s an under­state­ment! That is way TOO much. I am way TOO depressed!

   Arjun: I shud­der to think! And thank­fully, my math ain’t too good :) And I wouldn’t be able to sleep well if I knew anyway!

   Actu­ally, 50 lakhs works out to about $110,000. US offers in invest­ment bank­ing are usu­ally in that range. And from what I hear, it’s quite sus­tain­able in the indus­try. The pay is around $225,000 for a per­son with about 4–5 years of invest­ment bank­ing experience.

   this is noth­ing new. 110K USD for US for a per­son who has all­ready got 4–5 years exp (thats what the per­son already had) is ok. I mean SW engi­neers with 5–6 yrs exp also get near abt the same range in US

   hi..

   read this in another blog too :

   http://youthcurry.blogspot.com/2005/03/150000-googly.html

   not every­one gets the same thing…

   there is a big gap between the top and the aver­age of the class…

   but not bad for the pub­lic­ity of IIMs and MBA..

   though i have friends who chucked 100k jobs and came back to india for LIFE..

   (if that is a con­so­la­tion for have nots :) )

   ciao
