The Role
Decent, interesting work. Not being paid to play football but not good none the less.
Great bunch, felt really welcome
Supervisor and the other guy always made time to answer any questions
I like to always have lots to do, might be a perfect balance for someone else.
More responsibility than I was expecting but the Send button became easier to press after a few weeks as confidence grew.
A much better outlook on the industry and what I want to do for what could be the next 40 years
The Company
Generally a upbeat working environment. Great office.
They worked hard to give me interesting projects and ones that would increase my understanding of different areas.
As I said they tried to teach me as much as I was helping out.
Sports and Social Club
Company Parties/Events
It has calmed my fears of becoming an engineer socially, academically and practically. Fantastic guys to work with and I'll definitely consider coming back
The Culture
Were always doing something, whether football or pub. When I didn't know anyone in London
London is expensive.
Good yet expensive
I'm sure you can do anything really. Google helps
