Yes, stipend is less compared to full time employees.

This is a common tactic used by a lot of companies to hire a lot of interns, give them a lot of work in the guise of “learning”, offer a few who can do the work and not complain a PPO at below market rates, let go of the rest. Rinse and repeat.

Recently set out to hire interns and had a really strange experience
