This was an amazing experience to work with such a close-knit team who really cares for each other and the work they do. One piece of advice I would share is to take the time to meet the people in the company and talk to them personally because it gives you a better idea of the work environment and allows you to feel more comfortable when asking questions. Doing this allowed me to have a fun and rewarding time that was also a huge learning experience. The people on the EE team really want you to learn and feel included, so I highly recommend Salas O'Brien.
