Intern Perspective :)
Embedded Software Engineer Intern • Current Employee
San Diego, California, United States
January 24, 2024
Pros: They cover flight tickets and relocation, with a discounted cafeteria in the San Diego office.
Cons: Management is hard, and your team determines your culture experience.
With the China/Taiwan chip conflict issue, I guess their finances got hit hard because they gave so few return offers this year. This is kinda sad for interns who have been with them for 2-3 years and expected rollover.
