Pros

1. Salary and benefits 2. Relaxed culture at times, if no pressure your team will take it real slow. The people in the company are also dull with no passion for programming. 3. No young crowd, poor place for fresher. 4. Good work-life balance

Cons

1. Don't be in the firing range when there are issues in production, that sucks you in and takes all your life for the next few days. 2. Poor salary growth within the firm 3. Ridiculous metrics for promotion. The only way to get promoted is to grow old in this company. Promotion is done on the basis of experience, or diversity. 4. Highly biased towards diversity candidates. I'm not saying it is wrong, we all require equal opportunity. But these people just go overboard and so you have a lot of incompetent women at high positions.

Top tier company with growth opportunity

Pros

The team was supportive and willing to answer questions. I gained practical experience in industry research, financial analysis, Excel, and data organization while working on real projects. Managers provided helpful feedback, and the internship was a good opportunity to understand how research and analytical work is completed in a professional environment.

Cons

Some assignments could become repetitive, especially data cleaning, database updates, and reviewing large amounts of information. Deadlines could also be tight during busy periods. Because the internship was relatively short, interns sometimes had limited ownership over longer-term projects.
