Symantec – “Symantec wasn't a bad place to be an intern”

Pros

For its interns, Symantec offers competitive pay (top 10-15% for internships) and some interesting and fun intern events. They also make sure you have all the tools to do your job and take training seriously.

Cons

Work wasn't as challenging as expected, did not see myself continuing work in the industry. My team was understaffed so I wasn't able to take on more interesting projects since they were busy handling other business.

Advice to Senior Management

Symantec should continue treating interns well, however in order to retain more interns the leadership needs to find a way to create innovative and exciting jobs that new graduates will want to return to.
