Pros

Discounted Chewy items, talented people, and the pay is fair.

Cons

Experiences can vary significantly from team to team, but there was almost no support or guidance for myself as a co-op, which was extremely disappointing. I wasn't assigned a mentor and didn't get one after asking. I was thrown onto projects that clearly didn't align with my skill set with no support, and I didn't feel like I had an opportunity to grow or learn significantly as an engineer.

Ultimately, the turnover is exceptionally high for a reason. The team I was placed on was constantly struggling to meet deadlines, so they rarely had time to answer questions when reaching out.
