Pros:

- Company culture.
- Helpful and supportive boss.
- Everybody was incredibly friendly to me.

Cons:

I processed a bunch of invoices. This got kind of old. I wish I was able to work on more special projects.

Advice for other students:

I could tell that Dannon is a great company and employees loved working there. Look at internships, but maybe not the accounts payable internship unless you are really into accounting.

Pros:

- Great brand.
- Organized program that puts interns first and makes them feel comfortable.
- - Trusted to analyze data and interpret that data to my team.
- You're given freedom on projects and given a lot to do. I was able to anaylze shelf space for certain yogurt brands and offer up merchandising ideas. I was able to use some creativity and my managers listen to me.
- Pipeline for entry level.
- Loved the other interns I hungout with at Dannon.

Cons:

More events, more feedback, access to numerous projects, and would love to do an intern project.

Advice for other students:

Dannon has a solid internship, but it's not P&G type internship, yet. Good company and I recommend the internship.

Pros:

Exciting to be part of the development process for a huge consumer packaged goods company. Dannon has a big footprint on today's consumer. I learned how to do a ton of research, analyze the results, and present them in a way that Dannon mgmt could make informed product improvements. Lol, I really enjoyed analyzing the fruit that goes into your yogurt!!! The slightest details matter.

Cons:

Wish I got to see more of other parts of Dannon. I guess I could/should have reached out to other departments. I also don't know how the skills I learned translate into a career, we'll see.

Advice for other students:

Dannon is a supportive great company. I applied aggressively.
