“Choosing between Amazon and Vanderlande internships”

I chose Amazon for financial stability but struggled with night shifts and people management

What I wish I knew
"I should have prioritized learning and work-life balance over short-term financial gain"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider long-term goals and prioritize learning and work-life balance when making career decisions"
