im just wondering,

i made $15/hr at ericsson a long time ago, but im sure it has gone up since then

12/18/2007 12:22:09 AM

I made $17/hr at Red Hat this summer.

I probably could have made more at some other places, but you really can't ask for a better location for the Red Hat office when you already live near campus.

Last internship I made $37.20/hr

[Edited on December 18, 2007 at 1:55 AM. Reason : no that's not a typo]

12/18/2007 1:55:27 AM

I make $8.75/hr working at the General Assembly

Thinking it's about that time to look for a real internship somewhere...

12/18/2007 2:01:26 AM

^that made me laugh,

^^uhhhh, please for more info, did you work for EXXON?

12/18/2007 2:32:20 AM

i think interns get 25/hr

12/18/2007 3:06:58 AM

$16/hour in '98, $19/hour for the same job by the time I graduated.

12/18/2007 6:55:30 AM

"$37.20/hr"

I'm guessing west coast money... probably san diego... that's equivalent to like $20/hr over here...

(could also be NYC, SFO, Silicon Valley,)

ugrad <$20/hr

masters >$20/hr

[Edited on December 18, 2007 at 7:34 AM. Reason : I didnt' make $37.20... thats 71,424/yr full time... ]

in what field? that seems extremely low for masters and low for undergrad.

12/18/2007 7:51:56 AM

i think i started off at ~$18/h my third year of school.

after i had worked there for a couple years, i was up to ~$22 or so if i remember correctly.

this was at IBM

12/18/2007 8:18:24 AM

$22/hour for local food franchise (as an IT manager), plus expenses (including travel/gas)

12/18/2007 8:20:21 AM

$3K a month interning

before the government took like half of it

12/18/2007 8:20:49 AM

Beginning of my first rotation: ~$10.30/hr

End of my last rotation: ~$14.50/hr

12/18/2007 9:31:05 AM

23-27/hr dependant on completed credit hours.

12/18/2007 10:04:30 AM

^jesus dude, what point of your school were you here?

for just finishing my first semester of sophomore classes I got ~19/hr, for finishing second semester sophomore I upgraded to 20.50/hr...this is undergrad

12/18/2007 10:33:19 AM

only about $15/hr a few years ago but all my expenses (apartment, cable tv, internet, power, water) were paid by the company

it worked out to about ~$22/hr with all that stuff and it made it very convenient

i came in with a lot of credit, and took ~22hrs/semester for the first 4 semesters, then summer school

basically when i co-oped i had a 8 hr summer, and 2 12 hour sememsters sprinkled in between rotations for completing 2 degrees.

i mean, i did ee/cpe in 10 contiguous semesters, with three of those being co-op rotations and no classes during co-oping. my last year i had 1 major class (or sr. design) and the rest electives, due to stacking up earlier on (to be able to party my ass off the last year)

and it's really, really staggered..

a girl that co-oped with your group was in about your position, had just finished up her 1st semester of sophomore year and was making drastically less than everyone else... so i guess it's still the same....

it's all good in the end though, b/c you're at a great site to be co-op'n

no this is east coast nuclear power money. and $20/hr is pretty low for undergrad. the least I ever made was $23.50/hr.

12/18/2007 11:45:52 AM

^stuck up much?

Do you have any statistics to back up that assertion? Or are you just trying to draw attention to your own pay?

12/18/2007 12:19:33 PM

My roommates made $25/hr on a nuclear eng internship and apartment was paid for in NY

12/18/2007 12:20:33 PM

what? stuck up? no, he's not, nuke engies get paid pretty well....

12/18/2007 12:20:35 PM

That may be true, but he stated that anything under $20 is low for undergrad, which is false. It varies depending on the industry sector.

12/18/2007 12:53:32 PM

about thirty to forty million dollars

after taxes or before?

12/18/2007 12:59:24 PM

$12.75 per hour + subsidized housing.

12/18/2007 1:01:54 PM

All Summer Internships
22.25/hr @ EMC Corp.
15.50-18.50/hr @ Bayer CropScience

17.50$ /hr at SE.

But they let me work all through college so it was awesome.

12/18/2007 1:39:03 PM

it was double what i made in high-school.

i was working 20 hours a week then. when i graduated and started working 35 hours a week, after taxes, i was taking home paychecks about 3 times what i was taking home as an intern.

12/18/2007 1:41:59 PM

I'm wordering what i should've asked for for this new internship

i just told them $15-$22, im sure they'll come back with $15

12/18/2007 4:24:08 PM

$18/hour is the average internship pay for marketing sectors. Had HR look that up for me. I get $20/hour with some bonus' and a marketing budget (has to be work related though ). But I get all of the marketing toys, work my own hours, can work remotely, and take on my own projects. I may be getting shafting in terms of pay, but I enjoy my work and I can't ask for more flexibility with my internship. Not to mention I will probably start traveling next year with them.

Pretty much I get paid to play around, have fun and BS a lot. Gotta love marketing

12/18/2007 4:33:58 PM

jeebus... when I said <$20... this is a figure from 3 years ago... when everyone I knew was making between $15-20/hr as an undergrad in EE/CPE

in 2004 I made $15/hr as a quality control engineer co-op.
2005 I made $16/hr as a design engineer co-op (I was vastly underpaid but the experience was worth way more than the money)
2006 I made $23/hr as a masters student co-op in the same job.

everyone that I know as a masters degree student is making $20-30/hr for people with internships. so >$20

all of these numbers are in NC and for EE/CPE so a job on the west coast doesn't count.

they aren't going to pay an undergrad without a degree more than they are going to pay a new hire... starting pay with JUST an undergrad degree varies from $50-60k in NC and with masters $55-80k depending on a lot of things.

$50k/yr is $26.05/hr full time $60k is $31.25/hr (based on 1920hr work years)
