Internships with housing stipends? Is that a standard SF perk now?
I hadn't seen anything like that in the midwest. Interns pay to rent apartments just like anyone else.
- chrisseaton 11y agoWhen I did an internship at Oracle I got an apartment and a car, for six months, on top of a senior engineer's salary, which is the grade interns were paid on. With most interns having no family to support or other commitments, everyone jokes that the people taking home the most money are the interns.
- goda90 11y agoI interned at a large software(around 10,000 employees) company in the Midwest and they housed us together in small apartments that were usually occupied by university students during the school year. They provided a housing stipend to interns with families too.
- tedmiston 11y agoWas it a summer internship specifically? And did you come from out of town, say 100+ miles away? Perhaps it is really based on short-term relocation requirements and I haven't seen that because I haven't had to relocate for an internship.
- huac 11y agoInvestment banks on the West Coast (definitely LA at least) give interns housing and a car.
