A lot of freedom to develop your own project for 12 weeks as an intern (I was given my project, but was given the freedom to design, develop, and test the code all on my own).

Great pay + living accommodations as an intern.

You will work with smart engineers who will help you.

The bootcamp was extremely boring, and the learning curve was extremely steep (normal for any tech company).

My team worked extremely long hours (12+ consistently) and had way too much operational burden.

Office culture is open, but I still felt hesitant to ask questions to fellow engineers.

Frugality sometimes prevented the team from hanging out as often as we could have.

I didn't see upper management that often, nor really get to speak with them. I guess I didn't have to, but I set out time to meet with interns, especially at the beginning.
