My experience

Overview

The internship program that I participated in had multiple social events with the other interns, such as Escape Rooms and Braves games. We also were given presentations and lectures by higher-ups, and I learned a lot even when I wasn't actually working. The interns all had lunch together daily by the pond, and most days had some kind of event or presentation to attend. The work that I did was mostly supplementary to my team. At the start, I mostly just learned, from learning about Linux to watching my coworker do his work so I knew what I would eventually be doing. Eventually, I helped sort and filter large amounts of data, and created a visualization for it so it was easier for my team to process. Then I began working more outright with the tools and programs that my team typically used.

Every intern had a different experience at Elavon. I know a few who had bad managers, or felt that they didn't contribute much to their teams. I won't say that my experience was universal, but I felt that regardless the opportunities to meet important people in the Elavon hierarchy, do some networking, and get comfortable in the corporate environment were totally worth it.
