WEX summer intern Marcus

Marcus

What struck me most about working at WEX was the level of visibility and connectivity I was afforded as an intern. Within my first few weeks, I was working on projects that executives would see and receiving invitations to lunches and coffee from senior leadership.

Coming into WEX as a rising sophomore I thought I was only going to be shadowing my manager. They gave me real work from day one, and although it was a lot of responsibility, I enjoyed knowing that I was doing work that mattered.
