Pros:
In addition to work, every Wednesday there is a Lunch and Learn, were the agency has top executives speak to interns. Also, Leo Burnett takes interns to a baseball games, the Taste of Chicago, the Chicago Architectural Boat Tour, and interns volunteer with a great group kids from the city. This is one of the best advertising internships in the business. You learn, have fun, and you're in Chicago for the summer.
Cons:
Sometimes you can get busy work, but even that is interesting in the ad world.
Advice for other students:
Apply early and try to find somebody on the inside.

nope.
Advice for other students:
Get after it. Don't wait to be told everything to do, take projects on and propose solutions. Be aggressive.

Pros:
- The PetSmart account team welcomed me in with open arms.
- The account supervisor made sure that I was able to participate and see the agency work that I was interested in. She cared about my summer internship goals.
- Deep dive into retail. Lots of analytics. I conducted store audits and competitive research.
- Our intern group was assigned a re-branding project for Bally Total Fitness. We presented this to exec mgmt.
Cons:
Advertising is not an episode of Mad Men. There is a lot of detailed, hard work and client management.
Advice for other students:
I really respect Leo Burnett as an agency. If you want to be in advertising, I also encourage you to find a NYC agency instead of local.
