Approves of CEO
Pros
  1. Great working environment! Free snacks and soda.
  2. People are friendly and like to help each other.
Cons
  1. Although they said that they require people to handle both front-end and back-end, they keep giving me front-end jobs, with no chance to touch their back-end at all! Maybe because I am just an intern.

  2. My manager seems not to care about my project. He has no idea what I was doing, and he doesn't even care whether I can finish it or not.

  3. It seems my team doesn't care about the interns. There was no welcome or farewell lunch, which is unusual compared to the other teams.

Advice to Management

For some managers, although we are interns, please pay a little bit of attention to us! We are your team members, and not the air!
