Pros

Friendly people and an awesome break room. I was an intern, but I made some awesome friends. I loved working on the top floor with an endless supply of snacks and coffee.

Cons

There wasn't any opportunity for growth because I was an intern for a non existing department. Whereas, for the other interns they interned for people within an existing department. I was set up for failure. My "manager" treated me like I wanted her position, but her position wasn't anywhere near what I wanted to do nor what I was hired to do. As an intern, you're hired to get hands on experience and learn . Did I learn anything? No. But I sure taught my manager everything she needed to know! I was better off working with the marketing department. The marketing intern got hired as a full time employee, and we basically crossed paths with every project.

Pros

Strong growth and opportunities to develop and implement improvements. Excellent exposure across all branches of the organization and access to key resources. The team is highly supportive, with everyone committed to doing their best.

Cons

Frequent leadership changes and a disconnect between senior leadership’s mission/vision and what is experienced on the floor. Results are often driven by individual effort rather than standardized, repeatable processes, creating risk when key contributors leave. Accountability response is slow, and operating as a “company of companies” continues to present challenges.
