"I worked for Ford Motor Company as a Controls Engineer intern starting in May 2018. The company as a whole was very inviting and helped me get acquainted with the workflow. Many engineers and coworkers were quick to help me if I was in need of something even if it was to bounce some ideas off of. They instilled in me that it's a people's business first then they sell cars."
