Hey! Original Poster here :)
Yea, its 39600 Euros, not dollars!!! Well I want to go back because I loved my internship experience there and the atmosphere. And, living costs in Munich are WAY cheap compared to San Francisco. I currently pay 800USD/month to SHARE a room... yea... 2 people living in one room? that's completely normal... And that's in Berkeley; SF is even more expensive. If I wanted a 1 bedroom apartment, it would be at least $1600, whereas I see housing for less than 800EUR?!
Also, the starting salary at EY is about 55k USD, which in euro terms is about the same.
But what sucks is the tax/pension which take a lot. But its still ok.
So, I guess a signing bonus is out of the question, but moving costs should be asked about? I mean they'll pay for all the Working Permit/Visa stuff of course, and not all housing required Provisions, so I expect like 7000 Euros to be enough to cover literally EVERYTHING, like plane, furniture, deposit, etc.
I think all I'm really asking for is a plane ticket, and maybe housing for a month for when i'm actually LOOKING for the apt. Otherwise, I would have to buy new furniture/stuff even if I'm moving to San Francisco....
