Pros

It is essentially all entrepreneurial and you make your own career for yourself. People were very friendly and there was a good open door policy in the office.

Cons

As an intern there is little to no guidance around the office. Your so called mentors are rarely around. The program is set up to just kind of throw you out there. If interns got to go on more meetings with higher ups then they would gain better experience overall. It is difficult in the intern position to want to give it your all when all of your contacts and relationships could be at stake.

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Cared more about building a program to attract interns than future employees.

Pros

Some of the benefits are great.

Cons

There appears to be a significant issue with favoritism and conflicts of interest within certain areas of the organization. In some cases, close personal relationships between managers and employees seem to influence opportunities, recognition, and how people are treated. This creates a perception that being part of an inner circle is valued more than performance, accountability, and doing quality work. Employees who are not part of these groups can feel excluded, overlooked, or treated differently. There are also concerns about inconsistent standards, where certain individuals appear to have more flexibility or latitude than others.
