The Role
Really enjoyed working here and everyone was friendly and helpful.
Felt very valued, people listened to my points and questions.
Lots of advice was given on all topics and whenever I had a question it was easy to ask.
Not too busy on a daily basis. August seemed to be a fairly quiet period.
A good level of responsibility. Whenever I had to do something for senior management, I was the one who produced the presentation and it was acknowledged that I had done it.
Very useful. Both in terms of financial instruments and in terms of macroeconomic knowledge.
The Company
A good buzz and people were friendly and happy with what they are doing.
Very organised, had a lot of stuff on and projects.
Invested heavily providing classroom training and materials that I will be allowed to keep.
Sports and Social Club
Subsidised/Company Gym
Company Parties/Events
Would love to work here after finishing, can't explain really.
The Culture
Very good, the boss organised charity days and social events at his place.
The local area is expensive, it is very close to London Bridge.
Good nightlife, slightly pricey but there is a great variety.
There were several opportunities for out of work activities which were fun.
