The Role
Was very good experience, loved everything during the year.
Didn't feel that I have done something valuable. It is a professional business environment. Felt I was treated by some people not as a person...
If you ask you always get support. In case you don't ask nobody care about you
There is always work to do....you should just ask for it.
The Company
Professional Enviroment, nothing personal, nothing funny, just all about job & work- which is good for me.
I don't think there were a plan, but you get a lot of work, support & learning (if you ask)
Quite a lot
