Pros

If you get a nice team, the work environment can be very relaxed and enjoyable.

Cons

Very difficult to get anything done. Making small changes can take weeks. Months worth of effort can get thrown away instantly when experiments fail or frameworks change.

Also had a horrible experience, following the end of my (positively-reviewed) internship, trying to get full-time work at other offices in the company.

Advice to Management

The application process is slow and disrespectful to applicants. Recruiters need to be better at communicating.
