Pros
Superficially looks good on my CV Lunch allowance Given holidays which can be paid back if not used Lots of other interns in this office
Cons
The department seemed surprised to have two interns and did not have enough work for either of us. On a few occassions I arrived at 9am and was not given work (despite asking repeatedly) until 4pm. Was actually advised to read the business section on BBC news on numerous occassions. Major problem seemed to be that employees were very promotion focused and hence did not want to share work such that they could gain full credit for the task. Looks like an okay place to do a grad scheme, but definately avoid the internship programme
