Pros

Work at your own pace, not a lot of pressure, ability to grow both academically and socially as far as learning how to interact in an engineering environment.

Cons

General Atomics did not provide what would generally be considered by the standard population in this fine country of ours as the most astute way of stimulating interns.

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
