Disappointing - Senior Associate Michele Marie PR Employee Review

- get to learn a lot about pr, get your foot in the door - learn basics of pr as well as platforms that are helpful to know

- get assigned a team so some people get to do more fashion, some do more beauty, some do more lifestyle brands (but you can't choose which you help out with) - a lot of tedious work when building lists

From the outside, it seemed like cool opportunities sometimes happened at the office.

It was difficult to identify any positives from this experience. There were a large number of interns, which often resulted in limited work and long periods of downtime. At times, it felt like interns were an afterthought rather than being meaningfully integrated into the team. The tasks I was assigned were primarily administrative (organizing spaces, unpacking boxes for people who didn't even know what I looked like), and did not align with the PR-focused responsibilities and opportunities described in the internship posting. While I understand that some administrative work is expected, I had hoped for more hands-on learning related to the field. Also, the overall environment was not welcoming or collaborative, which made it harder to feel engaged. Overall, I would not recommend this internship to anyone seeking a hands-on PR learning experience.
