That&#39;s the word on the Street. More specifically, first-year investment banking salaries, according to Dealbreaker sources, have jumped to $70,000 a year, but sales and trading first years will still be receiving a measly $60,000 per year. &lt;p&gt;Perhaps the 16.67 percent pay hike has something to do with the M&amp;amp;A market seeming to have come back: More deals to be done means investment banking analysts will no longer have the time to Google their high-school classmates and upload photos to their Facebook accounts due to their having to put together pitch book after pitch book until the a.m. hours six and perhaps seven days a week (all while their sales and trading counterparts still get to work farmer hours&amp;#8212;in when the sun comes&amp;nbsp;up and out when, or just after, the sun goes down). Or, perhaps, it has something to do with the smaller bonuses they&#39;ll be getting next summer.&lt;/p&gt;
