What I liked

The interns were heavily involved and granted important responsibilities. Great opportunity to work on projects that will make an impact within the company! The company culture is centered around communication, continuous improvement, and mutual respect. Everyone wants to support you, the operators, the managers, the other interns, everyone is there for the right reasons. The location is nice too, and I liked getting to know different people!

I wish there could have been more intern social events in person; however, the interns understood that COVID protocols made this a little bit trickier to plan for.
