NAVTEQ – “Okay Internship Program

Dec 24, 2008

3.0

NAVTEQ Associate Software Engineer in Chicago, IL:   (Past Employee - 2008)

Pros

Recently acquired by Nokia, so supposedly the company is financially stable now. Interning there was not the best program, but interns are given freedom to complete projects as they see fit. The mentoring program works pretty well, but only if you are assigned a good mentor.

Cons

Since they really only do one thing - maps - it can get boring if that is not something that gets you fired up. Interns are typically given similar projects, but are often placed in the same room, which is not useful for getting projects done. The salary is very low for software engineers.

Advice to Senior Management

Put the interns together on a similar (or the same) project so that they can work together.
