Research Scientist Intern
Pros: The working environment is very friendly. Each intern has his or her own space. I prefer a relatively private space compared to the open-spaced design in many IT companies in the bay area. Each Tuesday afternoon the team will get together in a tea hour to talk about everyone's ideas, progress or anything you like. The interns will have opportunity to present the work during intern as posters. In the end there will be a formal presentation summarizing what you have done in the summer, which is a good start for a paper outline. No traffic jam in the rush hours because we are in the very south.
Cons: The location is the very very south of silicon valley (I think it is the most south). So if you want to stay near to your friends who work in mountain view, it is a little bit far.
