Salaries will vary between size of firm and this differential between small and large can increase as your career develops. Remuneration paid to salaried partners in particular shows significant divergence based on experience, firm size and profitability, area of specialisation and so on.

The amounts above refer to basic salary and do take into account additional benefits such as pension, car allowances or bonuses. Again these can vary significantly between firms with larger firms generally having more comprehensive benefits packages.
