Pros
- Climate.IQ is an intellectually-driven, innovative tech company that strives to mitigate climate change and its resulting flood risks in vulnerable communities across the U.S. During my 6-month internship here, I have always been inspired by the strong social and environmental responsibilities of the company and its managers. It is a motivating experience for me to further develop my academic and career goals in the field of environmental science and sustainability.
- Climate.IQ is a small size startup, therefore has provided many opportunities and challenged me to be multi-tasking in different fields. It is a great learning experience and has definitely broadened my mind in not only entry-level tasks but also the development of the whole company.
- Company managers are open-minded, willing to listen to and respect different opinions. The colleagues are also nice to work with.
Cons
As a startup company in the social/environmental field, it is sometimes challenging to identify a clear business model so that we have to keep adjusting our approaches. Meanwhile, however, this process makes working at Climate.IQ more of a career rather than just a job.
