Pros

You get compensated very well as a student intern.

You also get all the benefits of insurance.

If you are lucky enough to get a manager who isn't busy doing other projects, you may get to do useful work.

Cons

If the team you work with is busy with a project they have been working on before you got there, you will really not have any real work to do besides trying to figure out what is going on.

Advice to Management

If you're going to hire an intern, have a plan for work you would like them to do while they are there. Don't just make up something on the fly that has no challenge whatsoever.
