March 9, 2021
Pros: I interned with them remotely, so I assume my experience is quite skewed.
However, I really love how prepared and robust the internship program was, with such little time to prepare. My manager/mentor were amazing and very understanding.
I learned a lot and had a lot of fun doing so. They were also very accommodating given COVID.
Cons: I wish it was in-person!
