The Role
Great people and great work.
Really friendly staff, who got me involved with every piece of work I could get my hands on.
Supervisors were great. Open to give feedback whenever. They trusted me and were always there to give a helping hand
A good balance overall. Some days were very busy. Others were fairly piecemeal. It really depends on the client requirements.
Overall, I had great exposure, to senior people. I took ownership of important client deliverables and was given significant autonomy
Training in the first week was really helpful and gave a great introduction to the company. Throughout the placement, I learnt an enormous amount and gained significant insight into client relationships.
The Company
Positive and friendly
A few hiccups at first, but ironed itself out very quickly.
They really care about personal development, which is great.
Flexi Time
National Travel
Company Parties/Events
Above 25 days holiday
Working from home
Very appealing. Would be a great place to work long-term.
The Culture
Really good social life in the firm, amongst interns and seniors.
London, so not cheap. Great place to live though.
The City of London, so always busy during and after work.
Yes. Although I did not take advantage of these.
