What I liked
Of all my past professional experiences, the Prologue internship program was exceptionally rewarding. The firm is small enough that everyone gets along well, there's absolutely no clique-ish behavior, and the team spirit is strong. It felt like one of Prologue's top priorities was my personal development, giving me substantial input on a wide variety of assignments. And when I wanted to pick up certain skills, leadership worked with me to create opportunities to do so for client projects.
The work structure was also excellent. I chose freely when to come into the office vs. work from home, and Prologue used no overbearing monitoring tools when I worked remotely. Despite colleagues scattered across the country, communication was consistently clear and anxiety-free.
As a college student preparing to enter the professional world, I braced myself for the high-strung, 70+ hr/wk, rat-race culture I'd been reading about in so many job descriptions. Prologue is nothing like what I'd imagined, in the best way. Its leaders have cultivated a very unique environment of low stress and high expectations. If you're looking to balance a meaningful career experience with a full non-work life, this is a great option for you.
