Summer Internship Wages for the Corporate Realm?

mr_minnesota

How much do summer interns get paid in corporate firms on average? For firms like Gensler, RTKL, and other big name firms? If you're a current M.arch student with no prior experence, in New York City or Los Angeles?

If I remember right, I got $15/hr at Gensler in New York back in 2005. Plus any overtime we worked (which was not much at all).

what about typical firms, around 20 ppl? I've been applying for summer internships? And a few of them have asked me what wages I expect, and I've only interned last summer at a small firm ($9 an hour) and I'm finishing my 3rd year of my bachelors. What should I be asking?

I think RTKL paid more. I got $14 working at the Dallas office while Gensler offered $12.
