Pros

Very very limited the only one is , in some divisions, flexibility of work between office and home. No advantages for being a medium engineering and consulting firm.

Cons

Merit and true performers not rewarded in an environment that it is too much political and hierarchical. Non performers can hide for too long. It is several businesses whose sum value is not more than the sum of the parts.

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.
