Culture
Welcoming. Friendly. Professional. Helpful. Above & Beyond. Inclusive. Many social events & activities. They have an Early Careers specific social group that organize events such as go-karting & golf for the small fee of £2 per month. However, unfortunately there were no company-wide events such as a vehicle launch event which would have been fun.
