Posting about a Negative Summer Experience
WSO-
Would you advise posting about a negative summer experience?
With a reasonable comp from the prior summer, I found my expectations about the internship were completely off-base in terms of culture, work, hours, and overall learning opportunity. If I had an accurate understanding, I do not believe I would have signed an offer. I feel an obligation to be honest but am simply grateful to have a different full-time opportunity.
Currently, undergraduates are reaching out to ask about my experience and informing me of what they believe the opportunity will look like. For example, they were told a 50-70 hour work week when most of my weeks were north of 100.
With this understanding, would you recommend posting anonymously about my experience on this site?
Yes.
Make sure you’re anon and don’t reveal any identifying info in the post.
If you were led to believe that you would be working half as much as you ended up working you should let other people know what they’re really getting into.
