Software Engineering Intern
Software Engineering Intern • Former Employee
Austin, Texas, United States
March 9, 2016
Pros: Good pay,
housing stipend,
medical insurance,
fun intern activities outside of work,
close mentorship from your bosses,
opportunity to have a say in your project,
challenging learning environment,
VERY women/ LGBTQ friendly.
Cons: Large company; you might not get to work on games you're interested in. Crazy crunch hours (although not for interns usually, and it depends on the team). High-level management and even designers are often more focused on making money than making great games (they're adding monetization analysts to their design teams... people who don't care about games).
