Pros

Caltrans provides some of the best exeprince when working in Right of Way. You get experience from acquisitions and talking to property owners, as well as appraising land, up to even working with relocation of utilities. Overall the company had a great culture within Right of Way. They male you feel welcome and important.

Cons

There are better paying internships out there especially if you are not an engineer, they told me if even if you have enough units to graduate they wont pay you more than a dollar above minimum if your not an engineer student.
