Does BAT have any sort of mentoring programme?
Pros
Great company culture, lots of managerial help, plus a lot of interns get hired on so plenty of people to relate to and easy to make friends. I loved this experience, don't let the fact that it is tobacco deter you, they treat you professionally and want to see you grow, and there is a lot of future job opportunities or opportunities to stay on afterwards.
Cons
The only con I can think of is if the internship would be working from home you would miss out on the great company culture and experience of seeing how a massive company runs on a day to day level.
