I need some Dev wisdom for you wonderful devRanters!

I have the opportunity to intern at a large multinational company overseas. I can get flown there and have a place to stay so that's not the issue. These are:

#1 it's cutting edge block-chain tech (not that I'll get to do anything super important) that I have no idea how it works. written in a language I don't know.

#2 they're trying to make a certain application of block chain technology proprietary and that goes completely against everything I stand for.

3# I'm only a 2nd year student and don't think I can handle uni while trying to catch up on a new development prosses, maintain decent grades and work part time at a job a might lose, if I go.

So, do I go?

    @BindView I disagree. Can't be said like that in general. I study IT in switzerland and work part time and I've already learned alot that I can use at work. I think it really depends on where you study.

    Most technology is proprietary. How is that a problem for you?

    Do you think they should pay you for writing open source code for others?
