I'm a Canadian living in Canada for ~20 years so this is an exciting opportunity to get out of the country and explore something new. I got an offer and am choosing between these two offices, unfortunately NYC is full. Menlo pros/cons - headquarters, nicest offices, nicest corporate housing (?) - significantly more intern headcount, so you'll be meeting more people - suburban city, not much to do unless you take a 1hr train to SF Seattle pros/cons - downtown Seattle (Dexter not Bellevue office) - smaller intern headcount, so you'll be seeing the same people more often (easier to build connections?) - not headquarters, AFAIK it's just a few floors rented in a big office - corporate housing not as nice as MPK my main gripe is that I feel if I don't pick Menlo, I'll never get to experience the FB HQ / Menlo Park life (trying to go to FB NYC when I graduate), and that being in Menlo would allow me to meet more people (interns as well as engineers, expand my network) definitely care a lot about a fun life outside of work, but also getting to meet a lot of new people. Thoughts? #meta #facebook #seattle #menlo #menlopark Seattle: $8,000 salary + $2,600 housing / corp housing MPK: $8,400 salary + $3,600 housing / corp housing
Stipend or GTFO
Lol, I see you everywhere 😂
I'm a celebrity
Since it’s an internship, I highly recommend going to headquarters for the experience. Meet a lot of people, explore the office, and have fun. Full time maybe consider a city which matches what you want to do more, but this is only for a summer so not much lost. Shoot for NYC for full time.
MLK of kors, much more of Meta is happening there and not in Seattle. You want to be where the action is.
Internship? Go to HQ.
Seattle proper is nothing special tbh. Nightlife is weak
