The Role
Very enjoyable. Friendly and supportive coworkers.
I felt like I was contributing something useful to the team.
Very helpful management. Plenty of one on ones and guidance.
Not overwhelmingly busy. Just busy enough to feel useful.
I mostly followed the guidance of the management but they gave me enough room to show some creativity.
The skills I learned will be very useful, I feel like the internship was focused on being a great learning experience in general.
The Company
Generally an upbeat, enthusiastic office. Only a few grumpy hiccups when projects didn't go as planned.
Very well organised. HR department planned everything extensively included events, talks, inductions etc.
It felt like the company was willing to show the interns how things are done in order to get them ready for what working there would be like.
Subsidised/Company Gym
Company Parties/Events
Staff Sales/Staff Shop
I would be very happy going back to work with the organisation.
The Culture
Yes, there were plenty of clubs and social lunch time gatherings.
Cost of living was high but was subsidized by the company.
Very busy and exciting place to live.
There were numerous events and activities organized by the company.
