The pay at a graduate level is decent, but I understand that the pay as you go up the ranks becomes very good quite quickly - I believe Bakers pays very competitively at more senior levels

It's definitely a good place to start as a graduate.

The pay is on par with other big law firms, as far as I am aware. Bonuses are not significant. Pay and bonuses depend on having someone advocate for you, so can feel a little arbitrary.

I'm not sure they are common at lower levels.

As far as I understand, we are paid a good salary consistent with the top tier firms across Australia. Pay is reviewed half-yearly for the first two years, which have included generous pay increases. Graduates are not eligible for bonuses, however this does not bother me. Overall, I am paid more than most Australians despite only being at the beginning of my career. I can comfortably live within my means, and so my pay is more than sufficient to meet my needs.
