Pros

Big company, big name. They hire many students, so it's not too difficult to get in. Roles vary a lot, so make sure to ask questions about the roles during the interview. There's potential to learn a lot if you get in a good team with a good manager.

Cons

Could be stuck in a POS doing mindless auto testings (WHCK!) which you will get bored after 1 week, with 68 more weeks to go...

Advice to Management

Considering how many students they hire, it'll be great to have the option for students to rotate teams once during the 16-month work term.

After all, if they want to attract new talent through students, first make the students happy and give them more exposure.
