Pros

I had such an amazing experience as summer intern at Glassdoor. Everything from the cool projects to the people I had the pleasure of working with was well above my expectation coming into the internship. The people here really care about your professional development and want to see you grow and do well. The support I got from the team I worked with was more than just what is required for a mentorship when it comes to typical interns. I felt like I belonged there and took on the roles of a full time employee, participated in meetings, and developed cool applications that will boost the quality of the website.

Glassdoor Response

Pros

Catered food, couches, cool people, dogs, Java, Marin County, San Francisco, Snackroom open 24/7, kayaks (no one used them besides me though).

Cons

They write too many integration tests. Instead they should focus on writing more unit tests. The integration tests frequently fail because of the nature of integration tests.
