Hi, I have two internship offer for data science intern role 1. Autodesk - San Francisco 2. Verizon media - South Bay Can some share thoughts and help me decide on which one would look better in resume, learning opportunities and future prospects (Currently, pursuing masters from San Jose state university And have 3 yrs of prior experience in India )
What are you after? What are your horizon goals? What excites you? Autodesk is ripe with potential and super cool technology but it won’t offer you strong vertical growth. There are guys who’ve been at the company 20 years and are one rung above being Individual contributors. That being said, the level of scholarship at Autodesk is strong. It’s a huge collection of architects, engineers, and vfx artists. You can learn a lot and the exec staff tends to dote on the interns. All depends on what you want.
Aim is the learn as much as possible. With that said, my aim to work at a startup eventually, so good mentor ship is very crucial. I have heard mixed comments on both the companies so it’s a tough call.
From experience, the hate at Autodesk is unwarranted. People get frustrated by the lack of execution and a top heavy sales focus, but the things our clients create with our software is inspiring. From the dragon in Game of Thrones to the rebuilding of the Notre Dame Cathedral. Generative design, GPU/live rendering, AR/VR, Film Production, Automation, and beyond. You learn Autodesk, you can go anywhere.

Yeah, doors to nowhere. DON'T go anywhere near Oath/VZ media. All the smart people either resigned or got laid off years ago. Who's left is a bunch of ass kissers playing circle jerk and burning VZ revenue from wireless/cable. Search "oath" in Google news.
Just because you has a bad experience doesn’t mean others do.
