Pros

Definitely good program as an intern. Lots of networking and learning opportunities. Give you a good exposure about the internal workings of this consumer-centric, often-fragile company.

Cons

I choose corporate housing and it turns out to be a huge amount of taxable income (albeit non-cash) on the W2. Called back HR and she wouldn't give detailed breakdown. The benefits appeared great to intern but the taxing is huge! (I have other income as a grad student so the benefits turn out to be costly).

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
