Pros

Good community. Was on a small prototyping team, so although I was an engineer, my voice was still heard when it came to design considerations. Not sure if this is the same on larger teams, but it was nice.

I was interning outside the typical summer internship program, so there wasn't an active internship program I went through, but it turned out very well. Was given plenty of help getting around and connecting with people in the company.

Cons

Although I was recommended for hire at the end of the internship, there were no open positions appropriate at the studio/location. I have yet to hear back about other EA studios. So, I'm having to look elsewhere for full-time employment.
