are all these stanford grads worth $100k straight out of school? is it really that important to twitter/oracle/facebook/google/apple that they have all their employees sequestered together in some awful tomb in the valley? amazon and microsoft are getting developers with 10+ years experience for the same number in vancouver and vancouver has the second highest cost of living in the whole loving world. imagine how little you could pay people in greensboro or houston

fb/google/oracle/etc have other offices as well, and hire from other universities as well. you get the same offer coming from CMU or Waterloo and going to FB in Seattle. splitting teams is definitely less effective, though.

Improbable Lobster posted:lol what a maroon Well not to mention that traditionally interns are taken on to give them some of the most boring or non-critical-path work (I guess the non critical path work can be interesting), because they don't bring a lot to the table. Imagine if you were bumped off some project you earned the right to be on because some Stanford junior just wasn't feeling ~fulfilled~ with the job he was hired to do.
