Bridgewater Reputation for Internship/Full-Time?

Due to the recent layoffs at BW, and what with them being down and all and being sued/suing others, how does this affect their reputation? Is it worth to take an offer for an internship here (as a junior), not knowing how they'll be doing next summer when I'll be hoping for a return offer for full-time? How would an internship at the firm be considered by other HFs in case they still aren't doing so hot/how would exit opps look from BW?

 

I'll PM my situation - don't want to release too many details.

 

what did you end up doing? in a similar position and interested as well

 

It's not an exploding offer, so I haven't yet made a decision.  I'll likely accept it though, I've enjoyed my conversations with everyone I've talked to at the firm and it doesn't seem damaging to try it out for an internship.
