Pros

The overall pros for the internship are the pay, the schedule flexibility, intern outings including a summer event and the ease of the internship.

Cons

I spent multiple internships with the company expecting to come on as full time, but when time came to get a full time gig they didn't have the funds or openings necessary. I would be wary in expecting an offer after an internship. While it may appear that a good internship program means the company is growing, but the opposite is actually true.

Pros

Strategic Shift: It’s an exciting time to be here as the company pivots toward IT Services and Digital Workspace solutions. Global Reach: Opportunities to collaborate with teams in Japan, Europe, and across the Americas. Stability: Even during market shifts, the company is financially grounded.

Cons

Legacy Mindset: You will occasionally run into "we've always done it this way" from long-tenured employees. Siloed Departments: Communication between the hardware side and the new digital services side could be smoother.

Pros

Creative Services team in North America is led by an absolutely stellar Brand Director, with a fantastic team that continues to smash it. The wider business and fellow employees have always been genuinely kind, and the office environment is very friendly as well.

Cons

I truly can't think of any! The team and atmosphere is great!
