Pros
Interns feel like an important part of the team right from the start. From 1-on-1 meetings with every member of the staff to being able to contribute to important projects. Interns here are encouraged to participate in meetings, ask questions and pursue tasks that align with your interests. At the same time, your experience with VisionPoint is what you make of it. Mentors, learning experiences and challenges are at your fingertips but you have to take initiative. I learned so much this summer not only about marketing but also about the importance of good company culture and team work. This team is the best group of people I could have hoped to learn from and any future interns who get this opportunity should feel very lucky.
Cons
A 100 dollar stipend per 40 hours worked is less than some other internships might pay but VisionPoint makes up for their compensation with the amazing program they have designed for their interns.
