Pros

The seasonal events with open bar are fun. The staff is pretty diverse and queer which was cool.

Cons

The work is mundane and there is no upward growth. Management are super contradictory and do not trust their employees. The work space was cool since you are surrounded by art. The folks there act super cool and chill and like they are your friends, but they’re not. It is lowkey a cult. Also everyone makes the same amount of money, even if someone works harder and actually does the work. So that sucks.

Pros

- the small but mighty team is really close knit and down to earth - director/manager is great and really reasonable - really good to get an intern familiar with classical graphic design standards

Cons

- definitely no option for a full-time conversion after internship ends

Pros

The Whitney truly cares about intern professional growth, and they have many events for interns to get immersed in the museum as well as the broader space. You get to genuinely contribute and make an impact in your department.

Cons

Be prepared to be proactive and self-starting, as it is a fast-paced environment where you should be able to hit the ground running.
