The other interns are just as miserable as you. The one thing everyone bonds over, is how much we all hate the CEO Jason Miller so much. Another pro is we all know that this internship is checking the box of "internship from heck" experience so we've got war stories. The pro of this is the odd and sick joy you feel while watching your friends and family laugh so hard at you and the horrible crap this joke of a company puts you through. Oh! Another pro, you'll really get a kick out of the ultra weird and cryptic emails that the CEO Jason Miller sends out at 2, 3, and 4am.

The AM1 printer will work only under perfect conditions, with perfect 3D files, and perfect filament. Other than that, it's a giant and HIGHLY OVERPRICED piece of crap. So many of the very small customer base is trying to return the printer. Don't get lured into a false sense of confidence in the machine, the company, the other "employees", or the two owners (CEO Jason Miller and CTO Andrew), they are complete bull crap artists that can razzle dazzle you telling you everything you want to hear. They'll sell you on what a cool, hip, startup culture they have. They'll show you all these cool and impressive prints (some of the prints the Cosine machine did not/could not print). As soon as you come onboard and sign the RIDICULOUS employee agreement (PRO tip: DON'T SIGN, there's all sorts of high power legalise in there that you'll regret later) that's when the abuse starts. You'll get paid less than crap ("because they are a startup, but we offer employee stock"), you'll be "asked" to work over time and not report it, or get paid for the over time, all the while hanging this employee stock over your head as a carrot. Read the fine print, the employee stock is a farse, legally. OH HUGE CON, THERE IS NO AIR CONDITIONING IN THE CRAPPY WAREHOUSE THAT'S IN THE GHETTO. Cars get broken into all the time, windows smashed, stray dogs everywhere, trash, smells awful, across the street from train tracks and all the crime with that. That crappy warehouse that Cosine is in? The CEO Jason Miller owns the warehouse, and pays himself rent, rather than pay us decent wages. All this is not the worse part. Every phone call made using the company phones, every email, every click from your mouse and keyboard is tracked and monitored by the CEO. He spends all night listening and reading every single call and email.
