This is fairly accurate. Ive interned and worked on automation projects in the middle office and currently work full time in the post trade operations (back office). Now in my case the salary is ~20% better than the one listed in this video. Additionally, most of the staff in the middle office were people who started in the mo itself and in off cases back office and more rarely front office.
