I was fortunate enough to be offered an internship at Two Sigma and Facebook this summer. For Facebook it will be a return internship. I’m interested in learning more about different tech environments at the monent, so mostly leaning towards Two Sigma. It would also be a pretty good booster to my CV. However, I have heard that Two Sigma full time offer isn’t as good as Facebook, and at the same time the firm isn’t doing quite well. For Facebook it will be a return internship, so I’m not particularly excited. It also seems to have grown quite big so might not end up in a good team all the time. My team in the last internship was good, but the project was not interesting. However their full time offer is really good, and I’m confident I can get a good performance review (= the higher offer). TC: 45k (internship salary + housing :p) YoE: 0 #engineering #software #swe

Avoid finance sector. The longest bull market will be followed by the longest bear market. Don’t know if it happens now or two years from now.
Two Sigma since it’s internship and you’ve already done FB, but would still say FB for full time
Facebook internships are quite stressful wit all the evaluations, I would definitely not like to do it twice:)
If you’re going for GE then I can see it being stressful I guess. Just getting a return offer is as simple as completing your project though.
FB return offer is better than TS?
TS tech is awful. for FTE return definitely FB, internship is whatever, feel free to experience TS for yourself
2s new grad comp is higher by like ~50k and that's assuming you get the highest return offer from fb. It's higher by like ~100k y1 if you get the standard external new grad offer.
TS new grad comp this year is much higher than rock star return offer at FB.

No brainer, choose two sigma for a different exposure. You shouldnt chase lc at this stage Checkout explore vs exploit framework
