subpar reputation... concern?

i will be interviewing with a group with a sort of subpar reputation (think publicly traded, unprofitable for the past few years, has reinvented its business model a few times, and was investigated for some shady stuff by spitzer- although the investigation ended up being nothing).

but its interesting material: m&a, restructuring, etc.

so i was wondering if that would be a bad thing for my resume. bc i can see why it would be but at the same time - if i get the position im gonna be an intern so it wont be like i was at the helm of a burning ship, and i think i'd learn a lot. so im trying to weigh these two things.

any thoughts?

much appreciated, thanks.
