The Role
I enjoyed my co workers and I enjoyed most aspects of the job. The hours were long and you had to put up with a lot.
4/5
Definitely had a good relationship with my co-workers and we had some fun.
5/5
Management was very aloof and removed. Not very approachable and di not seem to care about development.
1/5
It really depends on the day but I always felt busy which I actually like. Could get stressful at times for sure.
3/5
I think it was about the perfect amount.
2/5
I definitely have a better idea of how a business runs from this internship.
4/5
The Company
It was pretty tense most of the time because we were always trying to do something, we had a small amount of people trying to do a lot, and sometimes my management was absent for hours at a time. We didn't really have time for fun, we wanted to do like a group lunch or something but it just never worked out.
2/5
Not great.. I was more or less thrown to the wolves aside from the two days of orientation they had me do at corporate. On my very first day I was writing tickets solo but had very little idea what I was doing. My manager didn't really put too much effort into training me but helped me when I struggled, my co-workers trained me in some respect, as they gave me tips and tricks a long the way and taught me how to do a lot of things through eCars.
2/5
We did have a sales training every month with the area manager which helped me. I wish my office was more focused on development because that would have made a difference.

3/5
They offer the possibility of working part-time during your semester and advertise pretty widely the prospect of being hired after graduation. I have not completed the internship just yet so I am unsure if these offers will stand true for me, but what I do know if they do try to keep you on board with them.
4/5
The Culture
We all got a long pretty well, since its mostly people in college or fresh out of college in the offices, it's often a good fit for young people because we all can relate.
4/5
The area is pretty pricey as it is nice, suburban, and a huge college town. My rent was close to 2 grand a month plus other "life" expenses. I tried to minimize going out.
3/5
The nightlife is average. Small bars, bigger bars if you travel 30 minutes.
3/5
Among the interns we definitely talk about it but we worked so much most of us were way too tired.
