Pros

If you are lazy, not the highly intelligent ones in work but good in playing politic, and want an easy life... then this is the place you can stay forever because they pay you to be at that level. It is a good place to stay for young engineers and be there for 2 to 3 years top.

Cons

If you can't get into the inner circle of the company, that it, you're out forever and don't ever think that you will get appreciated enough and grow within. It is a very quiet working environment, quieter than a school library that staffs are too afraid to talk and one team hardly talks to another team sitting at the same floor.

Early career experiences can really shape how people view the industry, so it is great to see you found the projects interesting during your internship. We also appreciate your honest feedback about quieter periods. Finding the right balance between giving interns meaningful work and managing project demands can be a challenge at times, and it is something we continue to work on to make sure placements feel engaging and valuable throughout. Thank you for sharing your experience and for the contribution you made during your internship in Boston.
