I'm gonna have a internship onsite for Jane Street HK right before my FB offer deadline. Does anyone know about the Eng team in HK and do they pay the same range as NYC (more interested in the full-time salary) ? I know my chance is low but low key need to make decision immediately after the onsite if I get in.
I went to HK for a week and half before the protests, it’s such a cool city and seems like a great place to spend a summer
Ask for housing allowance during negotiation
Thought JS internship this year, half time at NYC; another half you can choose between HK and London.
I thought they offer some kind of one week abroad thing but not half?
Yep it's only one week abroad.
Full-time new grad offer for hkg is a bit less than the nyc offer, but within 10% - it is quite close.
Thanks! Is this pre tax or post tax? HK tax is around 10% if I remember correctly
Pre-tax. Talking in post-tax doesn't make much sense because different people have wildly different rates. At that salary level I think you'd see a total rate of 15%, unless you're a US resident in which case it is much higher.
Is that the location you're willing to go now though?
Of corcern but it's Jane Street
The whole city isnt in disarray and protests are typically set at a certain time and location Only thing you have to be worried by is being harassed by some dumbass cops for walking on the wrong street or wearing the wrong clothes
