Pros

There really are tons of opportunities. As an intern, you have committees and subgroups, you meet a lot of people, and make a lot of contacts. People want you to succeed, and are supportive of you exploring around. All the poeple I've worked with and have met have been extremely motivated and intelligent. Dublin is a great place.. very close to Columbus, but far enough away that your not downtown or anything. There is a mall very close, and great places to eat, and cute places to live. The cost of living in Columbus is very low, very nice. So you don't have to worry about that. Interns are paid very well.

Cons

The only thing is lack of organization! It seems that there is a lot of rework.. and when you start.. forget about having your desk set up. You will be working for at least a full week without a computer... this has happened to me twice and to at least 5 others that I know, in varying levels of the company. I also think your experience is dependent on your manager as well. I had a great manager first who made my experience amazing. However, I had a friend in a different group, and she dreaded coming to work each day.

Pros

- Good benefits - Easy training - They strive to understand how to get someone to their fullest potential

Cons

- No concrete track for promotion, to the point that it seemed impossible - They will not listen to their workers - Management on-site and higher up are very lazy - They will expect you to do the work that they schedule, even if it is impossible to complete - From the perspective of my role in quality control, it seemed impossible to make management, and also production in general, understand the time it takes for certain procedures and tests to be completed and reviewed. - Our entire site is getting shut down, and they are just now ramping up production to meet quotas and schedules. While, at the same time, keeping our severance estimations as vague as possible. - Low to no incentivization for anything
