IT employees

“Through my internship, I was able to apply my appreciation and passion for IT to initiatives that support critical processes and functions. I was given the opportunity to join the application support team and participate in an ongoing companywide software upgrade. That process taught me the importance of stakeholders, deadlines, communication and client needs. I was treated as a team member — not merely an intern. This internship allowed me the opportunity to grow both personally and professionally.”
— Scott S., senior IT application consultant and former We Energies summer intern
