Poor Leadership, Lack of - Individual Contributor AlleyWatch Employee Review

My internship gave me a great opportunity to learn more about the startup scene in NYC by taking part in a number of events and activities that I would not have normally had access to.

The workload can be quite heavy from time to time depending on the company's projects.

During my internship here, I was given a lot of assignments that involved writing stories, as well as editing stories. I also had the chance to attend an entrepreneurial event in Manhattan with one of the company's co-founders as well. Very open and responsive management style, encourages collaboration with other interns.

Advancement opportunities partially contingent upon having connections within the NYC start-up scene (goes with the territory of being an outlet which reports on start-up news); this is, however, only a problem if you don't live in the immediate area.
