Pros

Great and inclusive work environment. Lots of amenities, including breakfast and lunch. Interesting problems, and even as an intern, you feel like your work counts.

Cons

A lot depends on you and your host. You need to be proactive in finding stuff and ask the right questions. Your host can either contribute to setting you on the right path, or they can be quite off-hand.

In a 12-week internship, I had like 15 meetings with my host in total. This felt okay if I was a FTE, but as an intern still learning the tools of the trade, that felt too little.
