The company was flexible, and very supportive. My team was like a little family and there were so many opportunities for growth.

I was a part of a great team and we hosted a lot of things. That was not the case for all teams and it would be nice to have had that with every team.

Business Analyst Intern

June - August 2018 • Tempe, AZ

What I liked

I got to work with an amazing team. I learned a lot of useful tricks that I later had to learn in courses such as WPC - analytics and SCM 315- business decision models

What I wish was different

They treat their AZ interns differently than the ones out in the Bay Area. Hopefully that will change as the Tempe presence gets bigger.

Advice

Ask people about their jobs and experiences they are happy to help you succeed in whatever way they can.

Marketing Intern

June - August 2017 • San Francisco, CA

What I liked

The office's location was great, and I was given relatively varied work. I worked amongst a diverse team and was able to take on a wide range of tasks as well as taking ownership of my own project.

What I wish was different

The nature of working in a bank is that every decision is highly regulated so it can be a slow working environment.

Advice

Make sure you grow your connections as much as possible.
