Facebook London Internship Stipend

What do FB SWE interns in London get for the 3 month internship? Glassdoor says about 4k gbp per month, but not many answers. Accurate?

That's pretty accurate. You can get 5k if you turn down housing, but you would be playing yourself.

Nice. Do you know anything about housing? How good is it? Is it close to the office?

The housing is top, very central, but not necessarily close to the office. I would say mine was around 30 minutes away on foot, but I usually took the tube and reimbursed it.

@Facebook do you still get some sort of housing stipend for full time?

No, you only get 3 weeks, time in which you are supposed to find your own place.

Ah. Makes sense. Do most people live further and take the tube since London proper is so expensive?
