Pros

My manager and mentor cared that I had a good internship and helped me develop technical skills. They assigned me "real work" which made it a really great experience. There were a lot of other interns to network with and the housing they provided us was top notch. I got hands on experience on the production line and did testing as well.

Cons

It felt like a defense company which meant the environment was a little tense at times.

Pros

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Cons

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
