Pros

Great work environment Great location Interesting tasks Amazon treated interns fantastically. They had social events for us, set us up with housing and paid well. One thing I really liked was that each intern was given a project to complete. In other Internships I've had I've just been added to a project; here I got my own.

Cons

I worked a lot of overtime. Most of it was because I'm a slow coder, but I felt like I needed to get things done so I stayed late to do it.
