Good experience but little customer contact
Pros: Good office atmosphere, even as an intern communication with Senior Management is on a first name basis. Internship gives the opportunity to be involved in multiple projects and experience a large variety of work. Very good salary package.
Cons: At the interview, the internship was described as being fully involved in a project team. In reality, I found that I was only supporting the project team from the office, since the company didn't want to pay the travel/hotel expenses for an intern to participate in on-site activities. This is most likely different, in the Audit functions, but unfortunately this is how I experienced it in IT Advisory.

The complex administration structure limits the possibilities of employees a lot with respect to their IT needs. Every special issue needs seperate approvel, which takes ages to get.
