Pros

Great opportunity for autonomy. Open to new ideas, as long as they are well justified. Opportunity to develop many professional skills, including: -Supervising -Training -Teamwork -Data collection -Data cleaning -Database management -Problem solving (associated with autonomy) -Strong work ethic (work can be monotonous, BUT worthwhile and important) Opportunity to work towards a phenomenal mission. Work life balance is incredible. Time-off is flexible. Office culture is good.

Cons

Relationship between different levels of staff (President, National Director, Director, Staff, Intern) can be unclear sometimes, but overall works well. Pay is somewhat low, but the benefits of the job/life in Montana outweigh this.

Pros

The staff and supervisors were very communicative and clear about expectations. I learned so much about legislative research. There were opportunities for professional development and intern socialization.

Cons

The internship was fully remote and unpaid. There was not much variation in the research tasks I was expected to complete.

Pros

Entry level, podcast-in-the-background work, easy-going, small organization, potentially cool supervisors

Cons

Work did not benefit my career at all, I was working on data entry most of the time. Work is also unpaid due to their low funding status. Looks like they only give interns the dirty work, and keep the good ones for themselves.
