I haven't been an intern there but I hear it has a lot to do with what field you go in. I had a friend who worked in development (I think...) and she liked the people she worked with. However, I did WORK for Roundabout for a while and have to say that I feel that they don't treat people very well. At least the little people who work for them. It's probably different in an intern environment. Just my two cents.
Do not do unto others as you would that they should do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same. ~G.B. Shaw
Any idea if it pays at all, even if it is a small amount.
David walked into the valley
With a stone clutched in his hand
He was only a boy
But he knew someone must take a stand
There will always be a valley
Always mountains one must scale
There will always be perilous waters
Which someone must sail

I'll toss in my 2 cents with serendpity's,differing only to say if intern's treatment is different,it is only in that it pays less(if anything).The Roundabout has a long history of treating its employees badly(yes,personal experience) & paying them as little as possible,all the while charging top ticket prices & with their top guys collecting huge paychecks($300,000 a year for one).
I strongly suggest you get your experience elsewhere(off broadway,possibly,or maybe Lincoln Center,a true not for profit organisation).
Regardless,good luck!
eta:I can easily second(pun almost not intended) priest's suggestion that follows mine-second stage is a more rough & tumble org.,but a good when where you will be respected.I know several people who have gone on to broadway from there.

For what it's worth, all the Second Stage folks I've ever met seem to be very nice people who enjoy their jobs -- most Roundabout people seem to be miserable.

Has anyone interned recently? I wanted to apply for Roundabout next summer. I'm a finance major with a marketing minor. I do marketing and development stuff for my college theater. Is it a pretty competitive program?
