Pros

I walked in a location that was also a manufacturing unit so the focus was mostly on manufacturing and not on soft development so the products were all made by hand and you get to learn a lot

Cons

Benefits are horrible As an intern, I didn’t get sick pay or any day off or any kind of benefit benefits with insurance or related Most of the employees are focused on manufacturing lines so the focus on software just is in there They mostly hire IT and technology people in Europe and India, so the American side of the company just doesn’t need a lot of software developers so getting into a full-time job here is next to impossible There is no guarantee that you will stay in the internship that you were given

Cons

Work-life balance can be inconsistent depending on department and production demands * Advancement opportunities may feel limited without moving into management or relocating * Communication and management consistency can vary between shifts/departments * Production pressure and changing priorities can create stress in quality-related roles * Some roles may require overtime or schedule flexibility that can be difficult for employees with family responsibilities * Recognition for process improvements and extra responsibilities may not always match workload expectations * Culture can feel more production-focused than employee-focused at times
