Pros

Got good experience with a range of software and hardware. Got to code every day at work which is better than most other internships.

Cons

Hiring freeze when I started, resources felt lacking. A lot of work to do for an intern which was good for me becuase I got lots of experience but I could tell the team where overwhelmed sometimes.

Pros

- Friendly working environment. - Slow-paced and relaxed. - Opportunity to work on high-impact financial software. Quite useful if you want to get into a trading firm later on.

Cons

- Limited skill growth capability (tools are severely locked down, etc) - Work life balance can be shaky sometimes since systems fail after 5pm, weekend, etc. - Documentation is terribly organized. - Not enough focus on engineering culture. Overall probably not the best place to stick around if you like exploring new skills, building from the ground up, taking ownership etc.
