The Role
Liked it, but there is space to improve.
Very valued by some, not valued by others.
It was nice to be given my own projects to deal with from start to finish.
Will definitely help me, but I feel like I could have learned more.
The Company
Sometimes really fun, sometimes very stressed/negative.
Office structure could be improved, as interpreting team is constantly on the phone which provides Call Centre atmosphere.
New positions open regularly, but expectations are very high.
The Culture
Weekly Pub drinks with at least the interns, often senior members of the team also joined.
Expensive (but very nice) area.
Good for drinks and dinner, no clubs nearby.
