Northwestern Mutual Internship?

Hi so I got an interview for a Northwestern Mutual internship, but I'm having mixed thoughts. My passion is more towards IB/PE/HF, and I was told that a NW internship is basically just selling insurance to everyone you know and that the whole intern program is kind of a joke both in practice and on resumes. Do you guys have any thoughts or opinions? Anything is helpful, thanks.
