Pros

Big company, fun but limited intern events, good pay, helpful environment.

Cons

Got stuck on a relatively new team, so most projects were still in the planning phase. My intern was stuck making a barebones API POC (which took <10 hours).

Most of the weeks in the internship (like 90%) were spent trying to set something up, doing research, attending meetings, or sitting around with nothing to do.

An internship is supposed to be an enriching experience, but this one felt like a gross waste of time. But hey, if you do well, you may get a return offer.
