Pros

The intern program was very large, so I met a lot of people in my similar situation. They tried very hard to make sure I had work to do. Lots of company sponsored events for employees.

Cons

Some interns I know didn't have much or anything to do for the entire summer.

Pros

Work life balance is very good apart from decent salary. The best part being that everyone is approachable and you can discuss things with them easily. What I have observed is that your concerns are listened and worked upon. Takes initiatives for the employees to make them capable with new technologies.

Cons

HR is the worst section here, some HR people had with the company from the start and thinks the are the big shot here; team matters a lot when getting a promotion, so good teams means good visibility.

Work-life balance, sense of community, pay is standard for industry, free coffee

Cons

Very bureaucratic, a lot of dead weight in the company, many things are overly time consuming or complicated for what actually gets done
