First of all, NO CUBICS!

The first day I got there as an internet I had an office with an accent wall. Also, when I first entered my office my brand new thinkpad was all setup with my 21'' external monitor.

My leaders were all super cool people we never lost focus that I was an intern as always were trying to help me grow and work around my school schedule.

Any equipment I needed (software, hardware) all I had to do was ask and I got it. No fighting with an IT department, just had to ask my supervisor. After you leave you have the option to buy your laptop for a reduced price too.

Minimal meetings, fast paced, structured test driven development (at least in my group)

We had lots of team building activities where we would go out for lunch or go carting at K1, etc.

There's an amazing gym to use with a heated pool. Good cafeteria.

My only grip - and the reason I left early - was the way the pay interns. They pay by your grade level, which isn't always fair.

Anyways, go to school and get the paper. And try this place out.

Oh the traffic is iffy...
