Fall Intern - Intern Mega Mega Projects Employee Review

If you're looking for a digital marketing internship I recommend Mega Mega! It's 1 day in office, 1 day remote which is great- 11-5:30. I have 2 other jobs and they are super accommodating with schedule conflicts - just don't over do it obviously. 80% of it is creating/designing content for clients on Canva (promos and social), shooting the jewelry, and researching trends/client image. There are guidelines to fit each brands image which they have panned out for you. You have a ton of creative freedom in the creation process which is cool. Other 20% is inventory, influencer/social tracking, gifting-related tracking, that kind of thing--which is easy and expected. Maybe you'll be asked to take a package to UPS but it's around the corner from the office so not a big deal at all. They give you a list of weekly tasks that you can basically choose from and switch off and on from different things. Staff is super sweet, I felt welcomed right off the bat. They are very helpful and encourage questions. If you put the work into tailoring your ads to the brand, and show that you've done the research on the clients image, they really acknowledge your effort, and applaud your work. They actually use what you create, so it's cool to see your work published instead of put on the back burner.

Unpaid, but it be like that. They offer a stipend if you are commuting far I believe.

There are no 'pros' for interning with Mega Mega. Maybe by the end of your third week someone will remember your name or thank you, but probably not.

You learn absolutely nothing, deal with cockroaches and condescending fellow employees rudely "teaching" college graduates how to copy and paste. Really? Talk about zero management skills. You will see their postings all over Fashionista.com but no matter how badly you need an internship for college credit, do not intern here. You are given absolutely no direction and when you come up with a new idea you are immediately shut down. Clients come and go in the blink of an eye. Not a professional place of business. More often than not you will feel belittled and frustrated. Do not expect to make any type of connections while interning here. On Fashionista.com the opening sentence for the PR/Sales Internship states, "The day to day is very hands on and your enthusiasm will pay off with amazing experiences while working alongside the growing team." The only amazing experience to be had with Mega Mega is the water dispenser in the room. The posting also states that you will assist with meetings with buyers and help prepare for market week and trade shows. This is a huge stretch and nowhere close to the truth. You will literally assist by bringing the buyers a glass of water during the meeting and by making a PowerPoint presentation of available items for the market week and trade shows.
