Pros

37.5 hours a week is a plus, if you can stick to it that's a great plus. Profit share is good for big investments timed to March. Very good for those detailed technical consultant in reservoirs/water quality/flood modelling.

Cons

Don't understand flexible working, advertising flexible yet everything requires permission and approval. Top heavy, lots of senior staff have been at Motts lots of years and insulated from the industry (and also with high stock options so shifting them is impossible). Promotion is based on time served which isn't good for anyone progression minded and who moves quickly.

Early career experiences can really shape how people view the industry, so it is great to see you found the projects interesting during your internship. We also appreciate your honest feedback about quieter periods. Finding the right balance between giving interns meaningful work and managing project demands can be a challenge at times, and it is something we continue to work on to make sure placements feel engaging and valuable throughout. Thank you for sharing your experience and for the contribution you made during your internship in Boston.
