Best place for internship in Mexico

Co-op

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

As Co-ops we participated in a project where we could talk to upper management about our ideas and they would motivate us to try it out.

Cons

I believe my situation is special since the office I worked for in Mexico was a small office so there weren't any career oportunities.

Business Outlook

Pros

- Leadership development programs are incredible - Work with very diverse teams, some of the smartest people I have and ever will meet - Ability to work in several different business models under one GE umbrella

Cons

- LONG hours in finance roles - Expectations are difficult to meet, the bar is always one level higher than current performance - The goal of CFO jobs is primarily to meet the operating plan numbers... using whatever levers necessary
