Pros

Stable and safe working place Salary always arrives on time Good for graduates to gain their first job experience (but max 1-2 years)

Cons

The job itself is dull and boring. You're not required to think nor to be creative. All you have to do is learn the system and then turn into a robot. There's little room for self-improvement and gaining new and interesting knowledge is hard. The Safety - I'm happy that they take safety very seriously, but still, we're not on an oil rig or out in the field. Bureaucracy - everything is old school here. And if you want to be in a position of power you need to pretty much be with the company for 15 years before you're considered for a management position. Salaries - Below average. Poor ranking system which is vaguely based on merit but at the same time it's not. Everyone gets the same increase yearly with some minor changes here and there. Entry level salaries are increased each year not out of generosity but due to inflation. Career Opportunity - you're placed in a team you never chose and you're stuck for at least 2 years before you can get rotated. And rotation doesn't mean promotion, they simply switch you to another team so you "don't get completely" bored. No room for growth and promotion pretty much.

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.
