Pros

All openings are posted for all to apply. Great e-training opportunities. Improving statistical progress tracking -however interpretation of results is sometimes mishandled.

Cons

Micro managing has reached incredible levels. Frenetic pace of changing focus...all processes are altered prior to mastering anything. Checking of loans etc redundant and overdone -incredilbly time wasting.

Pros

-People were friendly and would do coffee chats/one-on-one lunches. -Other interns were great. -Base compensation as an analyst is on the higher end.

Cons

-Feedback from intern manager only given at the end of a rotation differed greatly from what team members would directly tell me which was confusing. Makes me think people are only nice on the surface. -Team members prioritized some interns over others in terms of work given and time spent. -Teams in the same product group had wildly different work life balance with some working 70+ hours a week and others working close to 40. -Has high turnover overall due to lower compensation at the Director+ level.
