Pros

You will be able to apply a lot of different skillsets to find solutions to challenging problems. Communication is key. Having good working relationship with stakeholders will ensure you achieve goals in a timely fashion.

Cons

Not always responsive to implementing ideas that do not have a short ROI. Some managers might be difficult to work with.

Pros

Good pay Some people in the company are great

Cons

Poorly thought out placement- I was put on a team across the country from where i lived the entired team was new to caterpillar because their company was bought out by cat. They had never had any form of intern before and didnt have anyone else who was remote other then me. Because of time differences the manager reguarly expected me to work off the clock but wouldnt give me project during work hours. No room for growth within team i was stuck to- i asked on multiple occasions how i could stand out and get a permanent position within cat since i was one semester from grafuating and was told by multiple people to just deal with my current role and leave cat because "the only real way to get in is if you work as temp worker and they just hapoen to decide to bring u on internally from that"
