My experience

Overview

I worked in the Fresh Step department (cat litter) developing test methods and evaluating products already on the market.

Loved working here! The company culture is great and everyone is so open and friendly. There’s no sense of hierarchy beyond just knowing who has more expertise in a subject. For example I got to be good friends with the VP of specialty R&D during my time! I was also able to learn a lot. It’s not a super technical internship because Clorox has a wide range of products, it’s more about how you think and work with others.

Would recommend it to people who...

Are positive,creative, enjoy complete ownership of a project

Would NOT recommend it to people who...

Prefer to work alone, struggle with time management

How did working remote affect your experience?

It exceeded my expectations. I was still able to connect with coworkers despite being remote. Because I was doing research I needed to be in a lab, so to work around that in a remote setting they sent testing equipment to my house. I definitely feel I got the full intern experience despite being remote!

Advice on how to prepare

If you want to get hired here you should be a happy and excited person. Clorox is a very friendly company and if you’re someone who likes to work alone/ isn’t nice or positive it’s not the place for you. (As cliche as it sounds)
