Pros

For context, I was a software developer intern at Fidelity's Cary office in North Carolina.

I had a great team; they were very homey, and I felt very welcome from my first week to my last.

I appreciate that they created a little 'intern corner' for myself and a few other interns. It really helped us get to know each other, and we ended up hanging out regularly during the week and weekends.

Cons

I love Macs and Terminal, and unfortunately everyone works off of a Lenovo laptop. I got used to working on Windows, but I still would have liked to have the option to use a Mac (there are a few people that do, but not really for interns).

Some of the intern events are 'corny' (lots of team bonding type things like stacking cups, etc.). Not really my thing, but I still had lots of fun at the others (Go Karts, volunteer event, etc.).

Advice to Management

Ribbit is pretty infuriating to use.
