Big company name to put on your resume, free fruits, chance to come back for another internship at Microsoft. Fun experience coding with other interns.
Everything else. The engineering practices at The Foundry Program are ancient. The practical training given to interns is bare minimal, sometimes non-existent. The manager for foundry is unprofessional at times, as he seems to have family/kid issues from time to time, and he often carries that emotion to work. When that happens, he takes no charge at work at all. Base salary is quite low too.
If you have family issues, deal with them. Work is not a good place to reflect personal issues.
