Not much, I hope these guys keep on doing well.

Pros:

I really enjoyed my work at Ning. I worked in the product management group, which essentially leads teams in sprints that develop new feature sets. My internship was kind of split into two different parts: competitive research and project management. I really enjoyed the research function of the internship. I basically research UX scenerios on competing sites and offered up solutions for Ning. Everybody at Ning was very nice and had a positive outlook and attitude about the company. I was really impressed.

Cons:

None.

Advice for other students:

Ning offers all different types of internships, but they are tough to learn about. Try to meet somebody that works there. Also, make sure you use the product and can talk about it in the interview.
