Pros

- Flexible work hours, if you needed a few hours or a day off you could make up the hours later in the week - Project Leads and Boss were all very nice and outgoing - Work was tedious but easy to exceed the target counts - Decent benefits for the salary

Cons

- Poor salary only 17 an hour, little chance to get a raise - No upward mobility, and you are very replaceable - Poor job security, many of my coworkers were laid off - Work was mind-numbingly boring - Little chance to network within the company -

Early career experiences can really shape how people view the industry, so it is great to see you found the projects interesting during your internship. We also appreciate your honest feedback about quieter periods. Finding the right balance between giving interns meaningful work and managing project demands can be a challenge at times, and it is something we continue to work on to make sure placements feel engaging and valuable throughout. Thank you for sharing your experience and for the contribution you made during your internship in Boston.
