Pros

Great benefits and great flexibility.

Exciting challenges.

Cons

I was not given much direction in terms of work. The atmosphere was very quiet, and as a new grad, it was rather too lonely for me.

Advice to Management

Interns need to be provided with some sort of guidance. At times, I felt I was just there to do nothing and typically had to go and attempt something on my own. I was not even sure if I was doing what I'm supposed to be doing and was pretty much coding aimlessly.
