Pros

The office is bright and large. Generally there are no doors between different departments, so it's easy to reach your destination (and your boss). I can always saw the chief executor walking besides me. A lot of employee-involved activities. Free working environment.

Cons

Sometimes have to work overtime. Payment for intern is tight, especially when you have to rent an apartment in Shanghai.
