Welcome to the weekend!

The competition for young talent is fierce and it's no secret that investment bankers are among America's highest-paid earners out of college. This week Business Insider got the details behind the base salaries and annual bonuses top investment banks and boutiques pay.

Reed Alexander combed through data from online forum Wall Street Oasis to round up what the 10 bulge-bracket banks pay their first-year analysts. Read the full story to see which bank pays the most total compensation.

But it's not only the Goldmans of the world that attract top talent. Boutique investment banks also pay top dollar to stay competitive. Meghan Morris and Alex Nicoll dove into government data to shed light on what firms like Moelis, Lazard, and Evercore paid employees at different seniority levels.

Reed, Alex Morrell, and Casey Sullivan tapped their sources at investment firms, business schools, and the world of recruiters to identify the top headhunters that private equity and hedge funds rely on to identify future Wall Street all-stars.

Inside the drama at Blackstone's $129 billion credit division, where pay changes, PR black eyes, and disapproval of its internal hedge fund preceded an exodus in distressed trading

GSO Blackstone

Blackstone's acquisition in 2008 of credit-investing platform GSO has been a massive success, with assets growing from $10 billion to nearly $130 billion today.

But, as Casey Sullivan and Alex Morrell reported, the absorption of GSO wasn't entirely smooth, with two distinctly separate cultures that sometimes clashed — especially as it pertained to its distressed-investing unit.

The distressed-credit group in particular featured a slew of all-star investors, but it also created PR black eyes for the firm and mixed-performance over the years.

Many of the firm's top distressed traders and analysts left amid the turmoil.

Sullivan and Morell also tracked the firm's 11 top distressed-investing alumni who joined shops like Ares and Angelo Gordon and are now helping them go bargain hunting during the downturn.
