Good Experience.
Firmware Engineer:
Pros: Going into computer engineering, I had not idea if I wanted to work more hardware or software, high level or low level software, primary programming language I wanted to learn, etc. Finding Mercury Computer systems and studying Firmware design has given me a lot of experience and given me a new perspective on what I want to pursue in my professional career.

Only real issue if that I hear that this company in particular treats its co-op very well, but doesn't offer them an appropriate salary upon wanting to become full time engineers, so I'm afraid I'll have to look somewhere else for a salary job.
