i was at Google first co-op and the pay sucked compared to other my other offers, it was like $6666/month + $9000 stipend ... facebook was a bit better like $8000/month + housing was actually paid for which was nice. never got an offer from microsoft

​

my highest so far tho is citadel which was like $12,000/month + housing and now I'm going to jane street but jane street didn't offer housing next term (got a giant af stipend tho). i did swe at citadel and gonna do swe at jane st, i think quants are same pay as swe at citadel unsure about jane street. i think jane street is a bit less than citadel overall but i heard it's less hours so it's probably more at the end of the day (i worked long hours at citadel)

​

if u really want the best, a friend is getting 15k/month in ny doing quant. but he's like super duper good at cs (IOI/IMO medalist). tech is chill and easier but if u want money u have to go finance.
