Overview
I was responsible for building a platform that allows engineers to view the internal state of an application both during local development and in production. During my internship, I was working hybrid - 2 days in office and 3 days from home. Pretty much like any other company - daily stand up meeting to catch up on the work that has been completed since yesterday.
Skills
The internship allowed me to learn new skills, but also develop new skills even further.
Responsibilities
Yes, which is something i really enjoyed. I was given the opportunity of working on the project independently since the team was very small. That helped with my time management skills
Support & Guidance
Received the right amount of guidance during the internship from my manager, colleague and mentor.
Culture
The company culture is like any other bank in my opinion. It has both its good and bad side. Long working hours is very common and sometimes feels like it's the norm to stay past 5:30pm. The general atmosphere can be a bit intimidating at first but once you get used to your team and people around you, it gets better.
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed my internship as I was able to learn new skills and put them into practice to build a platform that is going to be used by others. I was working quite independently which allowed me to also learn the skills at my own pace, without rushing through things.
Yes
Make sure that you know what you are looking for and what kind of project you want to work on. J.P. Morgan is a very big company with a lot of opportunities in the different line of business.
