Pros:
I didn't know a single thing about the railroad business going into this internship at CSX. By the end, I felt like a railroad pro. Everybody was nice to me as an intern and they took a ton of time to teach me the ropes. Railroads are a huge business.
Cons:
Sometimes I felt like I wasn't conrtibuting very much - I was more learning that contributing.
Advice for other students:
You'll learn a ton during an internship at CSX. If you are into railroads or operations, this is a great spot.

Pros:
- The CSX business is huge compared to what people think.
- Gained understanding of audit procedures.
- Friendly team.
- Exposure to working with internal and external accounting teams.
Cons:
- This type of business is a lot different than silicon valley. I don't know if that makes sense, but it just feels more old school.
- Be prepared to ask a lot of questions.
Advice for other students:
Exposure to audit is important. An internship like this also gets me ready for a job/internship at one of the big accounting firms.
