The team was super cool, everyone was so friendly and supportive, my mentor made me feel like my assignments had real weight to them, but never put any pressure on me to complete things with the same cadence of a professional software engineer. I was able to gain so much hands on experience, was included on a lot of really cool meetings, and was just generally treated with the respect of a full time employee.

Working remotely through a virtual machine was annoying, and it sucked to not meet my team in person.

Ball is a fairly small community compared to other big aerospace firms, and the upper management is really chill, if you have good questions it seems like almost any executive will both want to answer them, and give you the time of day. Make connections if you see the opportunity!
