The Role
It was enjoyable and even better when there are other students with you
The work environment is extremely friendly and helpful
A line manager was assigned to each individual student
It was alright, not as busy as permanent workers
Could have been given more responsibility
Quite bait but could have done more
The Company
As mentioned, people are really friendly
Not too bad
They did invest slightly but felt that there could have been more done
National Travel
Company Parties/Events
Above 25 days holiday
Hoping to be able to work in similar environment in the future
The Culture
Friendly atmosphere
Better than Uni
It's more of a family town
Not much just amongst friends
