Pros

IBM is a huge company with many resources. If you are interested in something in tech, you will probably find it here!

Great mentorship and team matching.

Fellow interns are very nice and smart.

IBM works hard to make the internship experience engaging. For example, interns went to Disney World in 2019. This year, the internship was virtual, but there were always still events, talks, podcasts, radio streams, etc. going on!

Slack channels were also always active, so I was still able to make friends with other interns virtually through Skribbl.io, etc. :)

Hackathon was great! The first time I built a non-BS product at a hackathon, and I've been to maybe 10+? The support given was really incredible; this is a fact that applies across the board too.

Work was technically challenging, and I learned quite a lot. My mentor and manager were also very supportive of my wants and needs and allowed me to get experience working on different sorts of projects.

Cons
  • Wish it was in person!

That is all.
