The Role
Great community of undergrads making it a fun, social placement.
Treated as temporary.
At the beginning I was given guidance and then I was forgotten about. No catch up meetings, further discussions ect.
I did not have enough work. My manager did not care.
I had a couple of important reports but it was limited.
I have gained some useful IT skills - however these were self taught as no tuition was given.
The Company
Fine, however not much team bonding or mixing.
Very organized in the beginning. Less as time went by.
I was given little training and no development. Here to do the boring daily reports.
I would not come back.
The Culture
The placement community was great - lots of us.
Fairly cheap.
Luton is awful however we are close to London
If we organized them ourselves.
