Pros

Imagine working somewhere where there are resources to do almost anything you can think of, if you can make the case for it. You will have huge learning opportunities to better understand some of the largest issues facing the world.

Cons

Management is constantly changing what is needed, when, and restructuring, leaving work stranded and adding the wrong kind of uncertainty to long-term problem solving on complex issues. Internal competition isn't sufficiently managed, leading to unnecessary conflict and strife

Pros

Great benefits, meaningful work, and lots of flexibility in your schedule

Cons

Summer interns often hope to get a job offer at the end. This isn't the type of summer internship that leads to a job offer, but it is helpful exposure.
