    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • Worked in the IT department. I wonder why they even have a post open for this department. I was the the only placement to work in IT. This didn't help with making me feel more isolated.

    1/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • Was bullied and isolated throughout the year and was talked about behind my back.

    1/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • None - they just needed me to do extra work that they could pay a trained monkey to do

    1/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • Often given no support or help to deal with heavy workloads

    4/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • They made sure I worked

    5/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • None. I don't recommend this place to anybody. The ones that couldn't deal with real work and people chose to work in that IT department. Miserable sour bullies.

    1/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • Nothing. Just want to express the hate and pain I felt during my year here. If I ever see my colleagues again, I'll run them into the ground
