Pros
The benefits and cultural cache of the internship are only adequate if you have options with a significant company or a medium-sized operator. If you can make it at Hilcorp, you will be financially rewarded.
Cons
As an intern, I had no support, contact, or mentorship from any engineers, and I was thrown to the wind in New Mexico to solve an extremely complex problem. And when I did, management refused any reasonable action to attempt my solution. Further, I was debased and demeaned so heavily during a dry run with the engineers who did not have time for me that it shattered my already weak morale. I also left the last week of my internship for a medical emergency. After leaving, none of my team would respond to my messages.
