Good company for experience!

Pros: I learned a lot and worked on exactly what I wanted.
The team was a lot of fun.
Cons: The return offer is solely based on whether your team has the budget to extend one. This means for interns, if you are unlucky and get a team with no budget, you are kind of cooked.
