My biggest concern is salary trajectory. For instance, a converting intern at FB gets $75-125K signing over a normal new grad hire (just an example, less applicable to me specifically).
O.o Are the numbers really that high? Boy have I been in the startup industry for way too long....
FB is an exception to the rule here.
I dunno, I hear similar things about all of the big 5

That's not including RSUs too, just cash.
Getting a job right out of college is hard. Everyone is looking for a year of experience.
But once you get that FIRST job, things are smooth sailing. I never got recruitment message in college, but after I had graduated, and was working for a year, I starting getting multiple every week.
Top company jobs, are of course awesome. But if you don't get them right out of college, you can pretty easily do it after a year or 2 of working in the industry in SF.
