Based on the most helpful WSO content, interns at bulge bracket banks like JP Morgan typically do not receive a signing bonus for summer internships. Instead, they are compensated with a prorated salary based on an annual figure (e.g., $150K annual for BB banks). However, some banks may provide a small relocation bonus, which is usually paid out before the internship begins. If your offer mentions a sign-on bonus, it might be referring to such a relocation bonus.
