Flexibility Awesome People Culture Development Job Security Work Life Balance

Cons

Don't have many at this time other than sitting at a desk all day can be tough. However we have a extremely nice office space so there are tons of opportunities to switch up the scenery and its nice to be able to go on walks around the building to take a break!

Company wide standards and pace of change can feel overwhelming, especially when balancing regional needs and multiple sources of information

Pros

Fun coworkers. Made long lasting friends even after the internship ended. Very good experience overall and allowed for some unique experiences that you cannot get in college.

Cons

Some departments at least give you a chance at applying for a full time job, others simply use you for cheap labor with the fake promise of, "If you work hard enough, you might get a full time job" when that was obviously never their intention. Unfortunate to see some interns go through that.
