托福阅读丨名企实习生工资大PK！脸书实习生月入7500美元

长沙新航道每年都会送很多孩子去美国高校读书，但是毕业之后那些公司待遇优渥而且高薪呢，本期的托福阅读就带大家了解一下。

If you've ever wondered how much an intern at Facebook makes on average per month, look no further, as the social media giant pays its interns well over what the average American makes per month.

Facebook earned first place on last year's internship ranking from job site Glassdoor.

And it's no wonder the company's program earned that bragging right as interns flock to its Menlo Park headquarters every summer.

Glassdoor lists salaries for interns between $6,400 and $7,500 a month, which is significantly higher than what the average American makes at roughly $3,800, according to Business Insider.

A recent survey cited by Bloomberg, showed wages for interns at $8,000.

That equates to $96,000 annually.

The Social Security Administration found that the national average wage index was $46,481.52 by the end of 2014.

In just three months over the summer, Facebook interns could make around $22,500; whereas, it would take an ordinary worker six months to hit $22,800.

Not only does the company pay its interns big bucks, Facebook also gives them lots of perks such as rent-free apartments and all-expense-paid trips.

The interns also get free food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on Facebook's campus, theater performances, Alcatraz tours and scavenger hunts, according to Business Insider.

Pinterest and Facebook were the companies with the highest paid interns, according to a survey released in April.

Janelle McGregory, an English and literature major at Spelman College in Atlanta, told the Insider that she applied on a whim to Facebook's FB University for Business program in 2015 after a recruiter visited her school.

She said: 'We're not just here to do grunt work,' she says. '[Facebook] allows us to really head our own projects, they really listen to what we have to say. They take our opinions seriously.'

A report that came out in April regarding internship pay showed that the median internship offer for an engineering-focused summer intern is about $6,800 a month.

Rodney Folz, a UC Berkeley student compiled a list of the top paid internships in Silicon Valley.

Pinterest and Facebook were the companies with the highest paid interns, according to the survey.

Pinterest reportedly pays their interns $9,000 a month for a summer of work, in addition to $1,000 for relocation and another $3,000 stipend for housing.

Hyla Wallis, who runs the intern program, told the Insider that interns are assigned to every team and there's no project off limits.

Interns, like regular employees, are also given the same access to internal resources and information.

Wallis says that Facebook always hopes to make as many full-time offers as possible after an intern cycle.

Facebook also uses its intern program as a way to train managers and every intern is assigned a full-time employee who works with them throughout their projects.

'We're really investing in the future of management,' Wallis told the Insider.

As of July, Facebook said it had 14,500 employees around the world.

如果你一直好奇于脸书实习生的平均月薪，那么你不妨看看这篇文章，因为脸书开出的实习工资可要比美国民众的平均月薪高多了。

在美国招聘网站Glassdoor去年发布的实习生工资榜单中，脸书高居榜首。

实习的高福利让脸书公司底气十足，难怪每年夏天都会有大批实习生蜂拥至其位于门罗帕克市的总部。

Glassdoor网站列出的脸书实习生月薪在6400美元到7500美元之间，这要比美国知名财经科技网站Business Insider给出的约3800美元的美国平均月薪要多得多。

彭博社的调查显示，脸书实习生每月工资8000美元。

也就是说他们一年能挣9.6万美元。

美国社会保障总署调查发现，到2014年底，全国平均工资指数为46481.52美元。

在暑假短短的三个月里，脸书实习生大约可以赚22500美元，而普通工人需要工作半年才能赚到22800美元。

脸书公司不仅为实习生们发放高薪，还提供免费公寓和免费出游等各种福利。

据Business Insider调查，脸书的实习生们还能在公司吃到免费的三餐，观看戏剧演出，到旧金山湾的恶魔岛上游览观光，还能几个人一起玩寻宝游戏。

在四月份的一次调查中人们发现，拼趣和脸书实习生的工资都高居榜首。

詹尼尔•麦克格雷格里是位于亚特兰大的史贝尔曼学院英语文学专业的学生，她告诉Business Insider，她是在脸书招聘人员来校宣讲后心血来潮申请加入2015年脸书实习项目的。

她表示：“我们这些实习生来这不是只做那些乏味又繁重的工作，(脸书)让我们负责自己的项目，倾听我们的想法，也尊重我们的意见。”

四月份发布的实习生工资报告显示，工程方面的暑期实习生月薪基本在6800美元左右。

美国加州大学伯克利分校的学生罗德尼•佛尔兹列出了高薪聘用实习生的硅谷公司。

根据他的调查，拼趣和脸书是实习生薪酬的公司。

拼趣的暑期实习工资为每月9000美元，另外还提供1000美元的迁置费和3000美元的住房补贴。

据实习项目负责人海拉•沃利斯称，公司每个团队都会安排实习，没有任何项目限制。

实习生和正式员工一样，能够获取内部资源和内部消息。

沃利斯表示，脸书希望有尽可能多的实习生能在实习期结束后留下成为正式员工。

同时，公司也利用实习生项目对经理进行管理培训。在实习期间，每一位实习生都配有一位全职员工进行全程指导。

“我们在未来的管理上确实投入不少。”沃利斯说。

截至七月份，脸书在全世界已拥有14500名员工。
