Pros

IBM did a great job of providing a highly-functioning intern experience while being 100% remote. There was no difference in the workload, and as an intern, I was still able to learn a lot about the team, job, and role while still being fully virtual.

There were plenty of activities available to do all sorts of different things virtually, to help interns feel connected and socialize with others.

Cons

The most difficult and frustrating thing about the internship was not being able to fully expand my professional network because of it being remote. It is difficult to meet new people and have genuine conversations virtually, but you get used to it.
