Both Facebook and Google pay about £80k for new grads (£60k salary + £20k in stock and bonus). Seniors earn about double that. Palantir pays interns £5k / month plus free rent.

Sounds about right. No one mentioned the free rent thing to me, but I guess that's in corporate housing where you don't want to stay anyway. May I ask how you know?
Usually corporate housing at top tech comapanies is pretty sweet. I have friends who got offers.
I've lived in corporate housing and it's all but sweet. Sure, the first period is all fun and well, but you can't live there. It's kind of like living in a drab hotel, or fancier dorm rooms. It's not home, and never will be. At least that's my experience, mileage varies of course.
Well, as I said, it's only for interns, so usually for 3 months.
