Altria

“All of my coworkers were amazing and extremely supportive. I really enjoyed the on-boarding process and felt that my time was valued. During the internship, I was able to individually go in the field with over 10 established employees which gave me great insight into the company. There are people who have worked at this company for over 30 years and people who have been here for less than 5, I felt this showed that the company values their employees at all stages of their career. Altria was also very transparent from the beginning about the business that they are in, which made the idea of working for a Tobacco company less intimidating. My favorite part about the internship was having an amazing mentor. My mentor really cared about my professional development and constantly offered constructive feedback.”

“I really enjoyed and valued the Sales and Marketing summer internship that I completed with Altria. The internship was comprised of a combination of in-field days, with Territory Sales Managers, and online days comprised of software training, networking sessions, intern team-work, and business skills development workshops sponsored by employee-resource groups. Throughout the Internship, two large projects were completed: an individual project that challenged me to identify business opportunities, employ data analysis skills, and present to a leadership board, as well as a group project that allowed me to work at the corporate level with a Key Account (mine was Sheetz). In addition, the company culture and the way Altria treats their employees is amazing! I had a mentor, coach, and manager that consistently challenged and supported me. I was also able to learn about many different departments and roles within the company; everyone, no matter what level of the company, was happy to speak about their role and give advice in one-on-one networking meetings. I happily accepted the full-time position, as I learned Altria is a company that I love to work for, and I'm looking forward to the full time benefits including a company vehicle, great pay, and an educational refund program. ”
