Pros

It was a great experience. Pay was good. My supervisors were extremely nice and welcoming. The work atmosphere was also very nice as well. The internship program is set up well. They have several programs specifically for interns to learn more about the company and build their skills. Great company truly!

Cons

I wish I was given a little more work that produced greater results for my portfolio.

Pros

Company mission, work feels important, free lunch and snacks are provided, monthly All-Hands meetings, and frequency of 1:1's with supervisors.

Cons

There is no room for upward mobility, because in BSM they will hire externally for a higher pay and title. Veteran workers who are being asked to train the newcomers are getting paid significantly less, and have a hard time being promoted. The excuse is that "only 1-2 operators can be promoted per pay cycle", which is nonsense. They are bringing in full-time hires from companies like Natera starting at $30+/hr, when in-house operators are struggling at $25/hr.

Pros

Good work-life-balance. With stock options, the benefits are excellent. Company goals are also good. The team is also good.

Cons

Not much. Due to recent layoffs, the majority of the team members are stressed and unable to predict.
