I really enjoyed being able to work on two different real engineering projects. One was self driven and I liked that they gave me the freedom to do something I wanted for them (on top of what they needed me to do).
What I wish was different
I wish the location was different. However, the work itself was great!
Advice
Make an effort to reach out to friends, family, neighbors, and other people since it is hard to get an internship after your sophomore year. Networks are important.

What I liked
This company wants you to grow as an engineer and employee. Every learning opportunity has been made available to me in a timely manner.
What I wish was different
So far, the only thing I wish was different was better communication. This, however, is due to COVID which has made talking to colleagues face-to-face so all communication has to be online which isn't as sufficient.
Advice
Make sure you go out of your way to ask for more experiences! They want to connect you to the opportunities you want to take advantage of, so don't be afraid to ask!
