      Not all it's cracked up to be

      Pros

      There's a lot of experience to be gained by working at such a far-reaching brand. Even the dull aspects of the job are usually important.

      Cons

      This is not the glorious internship they advertise. I barely received any work to do, yet was required to be at the office 20+ hours a week. Because of this, I was made to feel like I was doing a poor job. I barely received feedback when I asked for it. Another intern in my office was always busy with important work. I felt used and wished my bosses were more honest with me.

      Pros

      Always new technologies happening, although implementation is often not very well planned. The new people tend to be "groomed for promotion". Good benefits.

      Cons

      Only new people are truly considered for promotion. The shifts can be difficult to work with.
