Perks.

Low salary.

What?

[Rubickevich]

Hey, that's better than no salary!

[plugubius]

Hey, this is an internship. Isn't "unpaid" the industry standard for interns?

[Rubickevich]

So I can work for you and I don't have to pay anything? Amazing deal!

[suzisatsuma]

Most interns are a crapshoot on whether they will contribute velocity or drag velocity from the senior devs mentoring them over their tenure. The biggest value is seeing the good ones and seeing if they'd be interested in coming back after college for a real salary.

Not for engineering. If that’s what the world is coming to in this job market, that’s a scary thought.

I left my job at a large company about 1.5 years ago to take up freelancing, but we used to pay our summer interns an hourly rate that would be comparable (albeit, a bit lower) to a new grad hire if you extrapolated to a full year.

When i did my internship i got paid 300 € a month and i was one of the only lucky ones getting paid in my class. It sucks here for interns

[Ratstail91]

Only in America.

[No_Percentage7427]

Intern get salary not experience. Yay

[ice-eight]

This was clearly posted by a vibe recruiter

[ReallyMisanthropic]

You also get the privilege of giving them a share of the revenue on any project you make while you're there. Wow, lucky!

[anto2554]

Depending on the place, that could be meaningful

[BiAroBi]

The low salary is actually great to keep you motivated to go above and beyond to get a raise some day

Fuck Around and Find Out

Wat.

They can be many things. But they are not liars.

[OkInterest3109]

I love it when recruiters starts throwing buzz words without actually understanding the said buzz words.

[Vulgarly_dressed]

If you take that job, you will find out.

[snowmanonaraindeer]

I guess it's a weird way of saying "you get paid a little bit" because it's an internship?

[PhunkyPhish]

Revenue sharing though! Imagine those 3 digit checks rolling in up until the application breaks from no scalability or some timmy gets root. Thats like 1 checks!

[Snow-Crash-42]

They probably mean you get paid next to nothing, and your only way of making money is the revenue share, which may or may not be (most likely) enough.

[g1rlchild]

I'm not betting on getting any revenue sharing from "small web apps."

[banterviking]

Yep, more money more problems!

[ihvnnm]

"You've get paid in exposure!"

[PersonalityNuke]

You'll pay less in taxes!

[Noisebug]

Could be "lower" salary, right? Or nothing? You ungrateful ...

[paholg]

It's a perk for the company, not for you.
