The work-life balance is great. The focus is on the work being done, not the arbitrary amount of hours you need to spend in the office. So, if you get all of your work done, then you can go home. Keep in mind that I am doing a full-time internship and can only speak from that perspective.

The cubicles aren't necessary. There is not really a collaborative atmosphere, at least for my project. People seem to be segregated. There needs to be more introduction across the teams to make the work atmosphere social and friendly.

Create rooms where people can go to work with other people, or to just sit and work while others are working on different things. This way, people can get to know each other.
