Pros
Caveat: This is my personal experience from my internship in the BI department. This may not be applicable always. - Good networking opportunities for interns - Great inspirational talks from great people in the company - Average compensation and relocation for interns - Good place to get business acumen
Cons
- They promise in the interview that you will get to work on a lot of modern BI platforms but actually there is no real work given over the course of 12 weeks - You might try to be proactive and pursue your manager to get some development work but you would get nothing - They hired me for doing BI dev work. Actually, they just wanted me to work on a short-term project like a PM for which nobody in the team had time. They should have hired a candidate who wanted to do PM stuff.
