Fun fact: Bloomberg was -literally- the only one to fact-check the
#talkpay intern survey. Great analysis

The Cal alumni mag is second to request a fact-check: http://alumni.berkeley.edu/california-magazine/just-in/2016-04-28/are-you-paid-less-tech-intern-cal-student-conducts-eye …. Every other "news" story was based off some guy's tweet.

Any idea of how these rates translate to perm / senior positions?

Roughly: 10-20% salary annualized, + hella stock. A friend did intern and newgrad for '17, you can compare here.https://twitter.com/jtc_au/status/804696875815288836?lang=en …

@rodneyfolz Yelp and Apple may be out of date, based on my experience -
@kevinchen yelp is actually exactly what I'm getting paid, at least 4x other reports corroborate t.t should have negotiated more -
@rodneyfolz Oh right, forgot it changes by grad year. Have fun at Yelp btw, and say hi to jhurley/jlai in product for me if you see them! -
@kevinchen will do! -
@rodneyfolz@kevinchen Rodney, the negotiation is never over, and employment is at will. Ask for more :)

#talkpay@rodneyfolz@SwiftOnSecurity literal absurdity considering they have no practical skills yet... -
@perfatscale@rodneyfolz - They're not supposed to but tech internships in SF are extremely competitive and they do want you to code. -
@ladyfox14@rodneyfolz I understand. I'm in SF and I advise a number of startups in the Bay Area. -
@perfatscale@rodneyfolz - Then you understand SF's ever growing need for more techies and the price that companies will pay for them. -
@ladyfox14@rodneyfolz mentoring is a critical part of a successful internship program. I expect full time devs to have full stack awareness -
@perfatscale@rodneyfolz - I do agree that internships.should be used for mentoring rather than pre-screenings for potential employees. -
@ladyfox14@rodneyfolz these internships are setting unrealistic expectations for when they become a full-time devs. -
@perfatscale@ladyfox14 the FT #'s I hear from friends are way above the intern salaries so it's commensurate. - 1 more reply
