Pros

As an intern in the middle of my college experience I found it refreshing to get work that the analysts would also be doing. The workload they give you is generally quite intense and allows you to learn a lot very quickly and feel valued.

Cons

There were very few opportunities for me to expand my horizons as an off-cycle intern. Instead of being moved around I was given a very narrow focus which I found restrictive and unhelpful.

Pros

decent pay and good name drop to add to your experience and resume

Cons

everything!! since this was a contract role I was brought in to complete a project with 0 leadership or direction. I was left to figure out everything completely on my own from finding a computer and a desk and a phone to figuring out who to contact in India etc to help me revamp the entire global website on the backend. I literally had to show up to work everyday at least an hour early so that I could possibly try to find a open desk sometimes I had to work on the floor or find somewhere in the lunchroom I could set up in the corner this went on for over a month.
