Pros
The internship program here is fantastic, with BarCap running a group of 150+ interns and Barclays Wealth now completing its second round of summer analysts. HR does a great job of balancing on-desk work experience with training sessions, and even roundtable-type discussions with higher management and the CEO.
Cons
For interns, the personal experience is pretty much entirely dependent on the team you're assigned to. If luck is on your side, you'll have a great line manager that fosters professional growth and encourages you to ask questions, etc. On the other hand, you could end up with a manager who goes the entire summer without speaking with you and instead asks another entry-level associate to "take care" of you.
