Positive Outlook
Pros
  1. Benefits and compensation are great. WFH office compensation is $1000, even for an intern.

  2. Clear on internship feedback. Mentor and manager will keep you noticed on the "Offer Trend".

Cons
  1. Worst work-life balance possible. My mentor has to work even on weekends.
  2. Too much legacy code out of maintenance. It's painful to look at the codebase.
Advice to Management

HR could be more active. On the last day, I received literally no message from anyone in the HR team before my Lark account was wiped out.
