Pluspunten

They compensate employees really well. Having catered lunches was nice. I learned a ton there and worked with some great people before they left.

Minpunten

The senior management made a lot of big bets that never paid off. There has been tons of turnover, those who stayed got promoted, even if they weren't qualified to perform the task. They treat their product managers poorly, give them little leeway to make meaningful change. Office politics were rampant if you wanted to change anything you had to back channel everything, have meetings before meetings. Decisions were not made in meetings, all discussion in meetings was futile, it was always a formality. Managers would tell you what you wanted to hear, then renege on it later. Life at RetailMeNot evolved to process without purpose, and became a total drag.

Pluspunten

Gained hands-on experience building a full website using modern technologies like React, Node.js, and Firebase. Worked in a real team environment and collaborated with senior engineers and designers, which improved my communication and teamwork skills. Got exposure to a production-level development process, including working within structured systems and maintaining code quality

Minpunten

The internship was relatively short, so I didn’t get to work on as many long-term or large-scale projects as I would have liked. As an intern, I had limited ownership over major features, which sometimes meant less autonomy in decision-making. There was a learning curve with new tools and technologies, which took time to fully get comfortable with in the beginning. The pace of professional development was fast, which could be challenging while balancing the need to learn quickly and deliver high-quality work.
