Banksters feel that they're underpaid
They might be getting paid more than the rest of us, but that doesn't mean they're complaining less.
More than two-thirds of financial professionals said they were unsatisfied with their pay package last year, according to a recent survey from recruiting firm Selby Jennings. But despite the fact that the average Wall Street salary was $363,000 last year, bankers are still more likely to feel underpaid than their counterparts in other industries.
About one in three workers say they work in a job that is too high-stress and pays too little, according to a recent survey from the American Psychological Association. And about 20 percent of workers said in an August 2012 Gallup poll that they aren’t “satisfied” or “completely satisfied” with their pay.
So why, when bankers make about $300,000 more than the rest of us on average, are they so much more upset?
