Software Engineering Internship - Software Engineer Intern ObjectSecurity Employee Review

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're genuinely sorry to hear that aspects of the internship didn’t meet your expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to offer some context. We strive to be transparent with all our interns from the outset - regarding weekly hour limits, pay structure, expectations, and reporting lines. Your designated supervisor was also your direct manager throughout the internship, as communicated from the beginning. The CEO typically does not interact with interns (outside of potential exit interviews), which is standard for a small and focused team. Regarding your project work: while we understand your interest in specific technologies, the scope of your internship did include a meaningful amount of Python-related tasks. Project availability can vary based on business priorities and intern engagement, and we do our best to communicate such shifts clearly throughout the program. As for the quote from your exit interview, we believe it may have been misunderstood. The CEO’s comment was simply intended to emphasize that internship projects - by design - are exploratory, not tied to core company deliverables, and not always expected to reach completion. Like any internship, both the intern and the company invest in the process with the understanding that outcomes can vary. Our goal is to offer a learning opportunity without undue pressure, and we set those expectations clearly from the start. We appreciate your time and contributions, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
