Pros

Great learning opportunity. Great career opportunities. Inclusive. Great pay. Flexible. Great tech in place.

Cons

There is a lot to learn here, and as a result, you might have to work a lot to keep up. This is totally up to you, and you can speak with your manager if you aren't coping with something. So, basically, work-life balance is your own responsibility.

Advice to Management

My manager is great. To keep anonymity, I can't say who, but they are a great people manager. Regular 1:1s are used to give feedback and encourage growth in certain areas to make me a more well-rounded developer. They are also very patient and understanding, which I think is very important, especially from an intern that is fresh out of varsity, coming into a fast-paced environment full of smart people with the highest of standards and expectations. :)
