Pros

High level of compensation, flexible schedule, jovial workplace

Cons

Everything, every task is overly engineered so it can be measured to the inth degree. No specific training in your job function, instead told to go sit in on meetings and determine how you can fit in.

Pros

Solid, stable company. Hey, in this economy, that's nothing to sneeze at. The impression that I have is that (in spite of the layoffs) that's still more or less the case. As an intern I found that the company policy was very open towards interns -- I was surprised and impressed at the knowledge available to me and the trust placed in me.

Cons

I found that And seriously, free food would go miles towards a more awesome work environment. As an intern I found that the full time employees assigned to work with me were preoccupied with their real jobs to the exclusion of helping me out; however, this might have been a peculiarity of my group or situation, or possibly I should have reached out more myself, as I know other interns did not find this to be the case.
