Summer Internship Pay

Hey guys, I'm currently working at Siemens in the Tax Department, and have the opportunity to get to Smith Barneys. Not for IB, but perhaps Portfolio management...only problem is, they pay $8/$9. Why is this? This is significantly lower than what I expected and am paid now. Do you think it's worth it to go to SB in the long run?

I hope to land a summer internship at a BB, most likely IB analyst or in a finance dept. BTW, whats the average intern summer analyst pay for the BBs? (if you don't mind) I'm particularly curious about GS and LB. I know the ranges for JPM and MS.

Thanks

 

typically they all pay base for a first year analyst prorated for your duration...i.e. exactly what devils advocate said...i can't really think of any reason an intern would earn something that significantly deviates from that

 

You're right. It's in New Brunswick near my school.

I figured it would fare better for be because it's more "Finance" related than being in a Tax Department. BTW, I'm an Economics major w/ Minor in stats...so you agree...no smith barneys?

 

Most banks pay $60k pro rated which works out to about $12,000 and also pay $2k for relocation (basically a housing stipend). You also get $25 a night for dinner. So all in for 10 weeks you get $14k plus free dinners.

Some banks also pay their summer analysts overtime and with this, I know people who have made between $30 - $40k in 10 weeks.

 

Stupid question, what does pro-rated mean?

I would LOVE to make $12K a summer. I know, I do not sound like a banker at all. :P
