      Good experience but Pace of Work too Slow

      Intern

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Given more responsibility overtime that was related to actual work (no delivering coffee). Great work-life balance, pays for transportation, very integrated work environment with lots of contact with upper management and other departments.

      Cons

      Most employees have been in their positions for many years (many 10+ years) and this may lead to the absence of new opinions. Employees are not necessarily environmental conscious (many printed out unnecessary documents or used styrofoam cups often). Work pace and processing is slow

      Great company BUT has a lot of politics

      Pros

      Family friendly, I work for a great P.I. who values my ideas and opinions and treats me as an equal and not just a free set of hands. Great branch chief and division director who truly have an open door policy. A lot of the employees value what they do, and the company as a whole believes in protecting human health and the environment.... CEO, Gina McCarthy, responds to emails!

      Cons

      VERY political. Not a lot of permanent opportunities to get hired as a full-time employee UNLESS your P.I. is best buds with upper management then you WILL get a permanently hired regardless if they are "not hiring."
