Pros

The starting pay is really good. For a development internship it starts at $20/hr with a great and inexpensive benefits package. It places you in a good position to become a developer after the internship and start at $28+/hr, and you grow from there. The office is amazing. It's open, technologically advanced, full of helpful people, stocked with food and refreshments, etc. The management is great, several directors and managers check up on me to make sure I have everything I need. As an intern, your job is to learn - learn the code, learn the environment, learn to become a team-player. The developers are generous with the time they use to teach me. Also, the pay, employee tiers (Intern, Dev I, Dev II, etc) and company is very transparent. I felt immersed day 1. You can work from home ~1x/week if you need/would like. I enjoy it because I can concentrate and work comfortably. The teams are cool people. Young and old, races of all kinds. The diversity is awesome. Making friends is easy and crucial. Also, you get a great ultrabook laptop to take with you.

Cons

I really have no complaints. As a brand new intern who is learning most of the work for the first time, the pay and resources I receive are generous. I do not know if long-term interns can receive raises if they perform well overtime, but the starting pay is generous and the environment is too enjoyable.

Pros

Break room Covered work area good lighting

Cons

Deceptive Company policy that is hard to access (Need to create a case with HR to review policies that are not easily located). Management over work with little notice for demand of Overtime. Management Typically uses google search to base their decisions instead of consulting their diagnostic team. Over demand of core job responsibilities ( Doing more than what you agreed to do upon hire). If Something was missed or not performed a certain way management will stop your production to show what you did wrong with the expectation that you will still hit production targets. Management also tends to talk down instead of a coaching approach. If you happen to go above and beyond (which is hard to do) little rewards come your way ( Things that wont come). Typical work shifts consists of maintaining a pace that is hard to achieve to always hit targets even if several roadblocks are in the way that you cant avoid. Overall working here I found it difficult to effectively communicate with management or other co-workers. * Working here I have personally experienced Sexual harassment and sexual assault, I have informed management and have heard no update on that topic other than "talked to said employee". Then Said Employee's behavior changed and found it extremely difficult to perform duties.
