Pros

Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The recruiting process is not as long as at other engineering companies. The Dallas location has many perks and lots of social events for interns. Recent graduates can apply for a rotation program that lets you work in three different locations throughout the country (maybe including Toronto too?).

Cons

The problem with TI internships is that the pay is extremely low compared to other engineering companies. I was just a sophomore when I took the offer, so I wasn't aware of this until my classmates all got higher-paying jobs. Also, if you work in the smaller branches, you might be the only intern there, like I was. This makes for a boring summer.
