Competent people, good processes, business outlook strongly negative - Anonymous employee Scientific American Employee Review

Amazing work culture, people, and opportunities to learn science journalism

Pay is not great and you get no benefits as an intern

Very merit based - you write what you pitch so don't expect people to hand you anything, but if you work hard and find good ideas, you will get a TON of clips and learn a lot by the end of the internship. I was offered a freelance contract afterwards, so again you get out what you put into it. The people were great and everyone was really interested in what they were doing, which made conversations eternally interesting. So lucky I landed this internship, so if you get the chance, definitely take it!

Can't really think of any big ones, but I guess a downside would be the lack of training at the outset (but at the same time I appreciated this because it forced me to learn on the fly and learn from mistakes).
