Really great co-op mentorship
Software Engineer, Backend Intern • Former Employee

Pros: You are assigned a co-op buddy. From my experience, they are very supportive and want you to succeed in your internship and overall career.
Cons: Sometimes co-ops could be assigned to more optimal teams for their skills. Oftentimes, it seems like they assign a random backend/frontend co-op to a random backend/frontend team.
