Pros

-You're directly helping people and creating positive change in their lives -The diversity of the people you will work with-both clients and supervisors& interns is amazing and great experience -You have a good amount of responsibility as an intern and your supervisor will really allow you to grow in your respective department if you show them you are willing to do good work and show great interest -They let your skills shine and allow to work on/create new skills

Cons

-It is unpaid. Although you know this going in, interns do do a lot of work and it dawns on you occasionally how you wish you were getting paid for it. -The environment sometimes be disorganized and hectic
