Hello,

I am a junior and have two summer internship offers. I have already accepted JPMC and am thinking about reneging, but wanted to get some outside input as well.

JPMC (10 weeks)
Pay: $60 / hr + 2.5k stipend
Loc: Palo Alto, CA
Pros:

High RO rate?
More of a household name
Cons:
Would have to relocate
Overlaps with school by 2 weeks so logistically would have to figure that out

Atlassian (12 weeks)
Pay: $53 / hr + 7.5k stipend
Loc: Bellevue, WA
Pros:

Don't have to relocated
Does not overlap with school
More prestigious within tech?
Cons:
RO rate lower than JPMC?

This is my first and last internship before grad, so would like to maximize RO rate, as well as resume value and intern experience as well.

Any thoughts below would be appreciated as well. Thanks you guys!
