Pros

Relatively understanding management, personal attitude, spells out work policies clearly. They are willing to negotiate with your needs regarding salary or hours, though it is a bit of a process. Online time keeping is a plus, though they don't really care what's on it, unless it's less then expected hours.

Cons

Not always organized on work needs or requirements, pay is low for industry unless you negotiate with them. Resistant to change archaic methodologies even when the benefit is clear and the need is great. There is a lot of soft pressure to stretch yourself too thin, requiring you to take a hard line with them. Tend to keep you compartmentalized, limiting personal growth.

Pros

Work with a mentor, so if you need help you have a specific person to go to. Small company, but the environment isn't too stressful for the intern.

Cons

Must ask questions, they won't tell you anything if you don't ask. But, they do teach you the basic processes and how to use the system. If you want to know more, you must ask. This can be challenging, because there is a lot of things you might be interested to know but am not sure how or even specifically what to ask.
