Pros
Thank god I was just an intern
Cons
I honestly don’t even know where to begin. My time at Airlearn has been one of the worst experiences of my life, and I feel people deserve to know what they’re walking into. I joined as an intern genuinely excited to learn and grow, but within weeks, that excitement turned into constant stress, anxiety, and exhaustion.
There were days I worked close to 12 hours with absolutely no flexibility, no understanding, and no respect for anyone’s time or life outside of work. No matter how hard I tried, nothing ever felt good enough. Good work went unnoticed, but even the tiniest mistake brought criticism that felt harsh and discouraging. Over time, it just broke down whatever confidence I had.
The environment in the marketing team was especially toxic. Instead of feeling guided or supported, I constantly felt judged, micromanaged, and on edge. The atmosphere was so tense that it affected my mental health in ways I never expected a job to. I would wake up dreading the day, and that’s something no internship should ever make you feel.
On top of that, the favoritism was so obvious that it made the workplace feel unfair and demoralizing. It didn’t matter how hard some of us worked — decisions always seemed to favor a select few. It created a divide and made the whole experience emotionally draining.
I’m writing this because I don’t want anyone else to go through what I did. If you value your mental health, a supportive environment, fair treatment, or even just basic respect, please think twice before joining. I wish someone had told me all this before I accepted the offer.
