@acceptable-flag-71699 IMO interns are mostly underpaid, as they do the work similiarish to the employees but paid hell less.

I agree with @silly-train-46493. In my experience with several startups, I have seen the same. and IMO they are more enthusiastic about work. 🙂

Well, just to provide a contrarian view, I don’t necessarily feel that way. Unless it’s a company which is willing to take anyone, you do spend some time (and hence money) picking the most promising interns. I’ve seen interns having a very high attrition rate compared to FT employees, due to a multitude of factors.
