Pros

Competitive pay; good benefits; still has a pension plan

Cons

Everything has a process associated with it; No great incentive to improve; More advantage to keeping your head down and not 'making waves'; Ranking system leads to low morale as employees are pitted against each other; Mediocrity and 'go with the flow' are more rewarded than bucking the system and trying to innovate

Pros

Good opportunities for networking and travel.

Cons

A significant HR issue between interns occurred during my internship and was handled very poorly. Once the matter came to HR’s and leadership’s attention, it was not officially resolved until months after the internship had ended. The VP privately apologized for the situation, but the overall response was inadequate and felt as though the situation was being swept under the rug. The lack of timely communication and follow-up created a very uncomfortable environment for a young intern and significantly impacted what was otherwise a positive internship experience.
