Rakuten

I was working as a full-time intern in Rakuten Ichiba (E-commerce Department). I would say even if you give 100% to your job, there is still no chance of you getting hired. The reason is, HRs don't just look at intern performance; they do this based on favoritism. In the end, it's really sad how you'll feel. The job conversion ratio is pretty bad. They hire more than 80 interns, and the job conversion percentage is 30-40% max. There is one Bengali HR who is brilliant at playing politics, and he opts for favoritism. It's really sad to see a good company falling day by day.

Pros:

• Food is good.
• Office location is good.
• All software employees and interns work with Macbooks.

Work with very old stacks like Spring, Struct (JSP), etc.

The HR department itself is doing a lot of politics.

There is less exposure to understanding a complete architecture because mainly maintenance work is done here. Good work is done in Japan.

If you hire a large number of full-time interns, then it is your responsibility to absorb them. Otherwise, you can take 3rd-year interns, right? Don't play with a person's life.

Give conversions on the basis of performance, not because they are from your state or something. If you are not going to do this, then, definitely, one day you will suffer.
