Most valuable experience of my life! (2013, though...)
People, culture, the work, and development.
This was my first tech experience, and in 2013, during the Bezos era. Although I was a contractor, I had access to all the development materials, especially around writing, and I've built a career in tech. I have an M.Sc. degree, but what I learned at Amazon in 2 months was so much more than I ever learned in my education.
None. Might be different now, but there were no free meals back then.
