The Role
I've really enjoyed the work I've done this year and the team have been amazing.
The responsibility I have been given this year has been really exciting, the work I do contributes towards the team as a whole.
My manager has been great, they have been so supportive and easy to reach out to when there has been a problem
I always had work to do throughout this year.
I feel as I have been given a lot of responsibility this year.
the skills I have learnt an developed I will most definitely be taking with me to uni and other jobs after this.
The Company
when I first joined everyone was very welcoming, the open plan has made it feel more relaxed. Overall I would say the general atmosphere was calm, being able to have a quick break and chat to colleagues is really nice.
When I started I had my set roles and tasks I would be doing throughout my placement, it was very clear and well structured. I also had the chance to work on adhoc projects that came up throughout the year.
We have been provided a variety of learning and development programmes that have really helped with my own development. its been so good working for a company that provide these programmes for Interns. We have also been provided with opportunities to network with members of staff all across the company which has also been really valuable.
Sports and Social Club
Company Parties/Events
Above 25 days holiday
I would love to come back and work here.
The Culture
there was always something going on, everyone was welcome and there's been a variety of social events this year.
London is expensive even though I was commuting it wasn't always cheap however I've enjoyed socialising and met some great people doing so, I feel like its worth it.
there are so many bars/pubs/clubs around this area all with a really good atmosphere.
Yes, there's always something going on in London, there are loads of opportunities to get involved in activities outside work.
