The teams are small, and few associates work with two teams simultaneously.
This is for the Disputes Team:
They give you the right amount of work—no extra work in my tenure as an intern with them. The work they gave me helped me understand the nitty-gritty of how a dispute team works. Overall, the experience is very good.
This is for the corporate team:
I worked with them for a few days, and the work given was also decent. However, the issue starts with the number of interns they take. In my tenure, they took around 12 interns, which I felt was unnecessary. Most of them wanted to work with the corporate team, so the work that I was getting from them was, most of the time, negligible.
You can work with both teams at the same time.
The washroom they had was very bad.
HR will try to give you very stupid work. The HR is very annoying. A few people on the corporate team will try to take your credit too. They will ask you to write stuff for them, and if it is published on their website or some other place, they most of the time don't give you credit unless you become stubborn.
Ask for work again and again if you decide to work there.
Overall, if you can adjust yourself to the environment and not let the problems they have affect you, I believe you will have a good experience and learn a lot.
