Pros

Friendly people, a professional but relaxed atmosphere. Many experienced people have been working for a long time, and I learned a lot from them. I was assigned a mentor who was a huge help. My manager met with me regularly to make sure I was having a good experience. The big name obviously helps on resumes.

Cons

I didn't have my own intern project, which meant that it was harder to summarize what I did for the whole summer. I don't talk about this experience so much in interviews because of this.

Advice to Management

Having a more dedicated intern program would be more helpful for interns to learn and to get experience in all phases of development: architecting, development, and deployment.
