Pros

Great resume booster for those in the financial/ accounting fields as the Company provides hands on experience for sophomores (though i recommend a big four accounting firm or nationwide wide bank for juniors). Interns are taught to do the exact job of full time fund accounts (albeit interns handle fewer/ less complicated funds). In addition, the Company thoroughly attempted to create open channels of communication and foster that team environment, though often times, the work is meant for individuals.

Cons

Interns were randomly assigned positions within the department without a choice or option to rotate.

Pros

The benefits package they offer is solid. 401k match, health and dental insurance There is a relaxed work atmosphere with a lot of kids right out of college.

Cons

Compensation is horrible. Promotions are handed out based on how many years you've been with the company oppose to how much youve produced while youre there.
