Pros
Great opportunity to build resume with fascinating articles and learn the basics of online journalism. Clean, mostly friendly work environment with a flexible work schedule.
Cons
Little to no direction from swapped editors. Very lonely environment because other interns would leave after a short amount of time with no notice and would sometimes spend eight hours a day and not talk to the editor at all except through email. Work was decent and manageable but some ethics about editing writers stories seemed a little lax. Not sure about their willingness to allow interns to grow and learn--perhaps if I was able to put more than four days in and not be in school or working full time--but such is that nature of internships.
