Pros

Great salary plus relocation, low cost of living. Other interns are good and your managers really want you to succeed. They take the law and their corporate social responsibility very seriously.

Cons

Salary not high enough to compensate the bad reputation you get when you look for a full time job. The decision to hire for full time is arbitrary and based on superficial perceptions and not your work, upper management sees you as extra work and don´t really care for your future. The industry is highly regulated and there are a lot of things you won´t do or learn because they are illegal for this industry plus on the first weeks everyone treats you like you are stupid just because you don´t know every minuscule detail of their laws and regulations.

Pros

Company car and free gas

Cons

1. The managerial style of the district manager in Seattle is extremely petty, his reviews make no sense whatsoever, and there is a rampant culture of favoritism going on in his district. 2. The insistence on doing “work withs” for a person with high functioning Autism was absolute torture. Even though reasonable accommodations were requested by me, none were given. 3. The district manager also referred to me as in proper nouns that were derogatory and EXTREMELY offensive to someone with Autism numerous times. 4. The payout of bonuses were also extremely infrequent, even though I qualified for them. 5. Finally during the interview process, one of the biggest selling points that was made to me was a promise of a work life balance with “exemplary pay.” Neither of which came to fruition.
