Pros

Flexible schedule, but you are not paid so it better be flexible

Cons

I give one star only because I cannot give zero stars. Do yourself a favor and do not "intern" there because you will learn absolutely nothing useful -- you only mean free labor to the "co"-founder and CEO, who is the only one in charge and can be very bossy and rude and impatient sometimes. Be extra careful with those reviews that advertise all on the pros and are very vague about the cons or try to pin the blame on "non-profit" because I have reason to believe they are carefully written by the CEO or his marketing interns. Good job Robert! The employee turnover rate is extremely high. You practically see new people every single day and the people you talk to today will very likely disappear next day without any notice to anyone. In fact, many of the interns have nothing to do so they are doing their own stuff. Ironically, they do have a bathroom in the office, but the CEO makes it a private bathroom so he is the only one that can use it, which is so indicative of his true color -- the man who talks about helping others wouldn't even share "his" (I use the quotation marks because technically it is not his) bathroom with those who work for him for free. To use the bathroom you will have to go all the way down to the basement and share the facility with a bunch of loitering homeless people waiting for someone to open the door. By the way, the keys may or may not work.

Pros

Pros: -You can just give yourself whatever job title you want and nobody will notice or care -There's a bar down the block that didn't ID so us underaged intens got to do happy hour -meet some fun people and generally have a good time not doing anything valuable or productive If you are just in need of an internship in order to move to NYC for a summer and aren't focused on actual career goals, this is the perfect one for you. If you are from the city and just need a place to occupy your time during the summer without wanting to really commit to anything, this is the perfect place for you. The coworkers I worked with were for the most part very relaxed and good people and we had a lot of fun hanging out during and after work.

Cons

Cons: -CEO is kind of a creeper. He once started filming a young woman during a meeting -You'll be tasked with making fake facebook profiles and spamming random facebook groups -Organization is completely interns, no actual staff, and seems like it's kind of sketchy/ not real If you are looking for real work experience working for a real company that will build your resume and give you the experience to tackle your next career move, avoid this at all costs. Actually, I take that back. Since you can give yourself whatever job title you want, it might actually help your resume. But, you will not learn anything useful and you will not make connections that will help you advance yourself.
