Pros: I enjoyed learning a lot about the tech stack from Grab, contributing to its ecosystem and communicating with the managers and the team to learn more about technical challenges and work culture. It was also very interesting to learn about the company's structure. The sharing sessions provided by interns and employees from other teams gave me an insight into what each team does.
Cons: Laptop equipment took 3 weeks to arrive. It was difficult to contact the mentors sometimes due to workload. Working from home during COVID made it impossible to meet the team face-to-face and I could not experience the office environment.
