What I liked
If you apply here, you'll hear a lot of employees talk about how great the environment is here and that it sets them apart from other companies. From my internship experience, they weren't lying. I have walked up to employees that I have never talked to before, and they will explain their work to me or offer help for my own project if they can. I haven't had an experience where I felt worried about approaching someone and striking up a conversation. Additionally, CTC has a strong emphasis on intern experiences, allowing all of the interns to become close quickly. My favorite part of the program is that we all live in the same apartment building, so we see each other as much as we want and can plan fun bonding activities. Also, Chicago is a great place to be in the summer!
