The Role
Very much enjoyed my time at PwC in the Risk Assurance department. Very friendly team and lots of help and support throughout my time with the company.
Felt very valued almost 9 times out of 10. The teams that I worked with always ensured I was busy and there was never a dull moment. I felt as if I was given important tasks that required me to take ownership and step out of my comfort zone, but with the right support in place to ensure I was comfortable in my role.
My supervisors and and colleagues were extremely helpful throughout my time. The phrase 'no question is a stupid question' definitely holds true at PwC. I always felt full support from my team throughout.
The majority of my time on the internship was spent working on tasks and I was rarely left without any work to do.
I was given lots of responsibility from the offset. In some cases I felt slightly challenged, but on reflection this was definitely beneficial for me and I feel like I learnt a lot.
The Company
Lively, hard-working, and rewarding.
Extremely well set up - lots to do for interns.
Working from home
Very appealing.
The Culture
Yes, very good scene.
Not too bad - working and living in Bristol.
