Intern Review

Everyone was extremely helpful, and this made for a very welcoming environment. Although we were in an office, it didn't feel nowhere near as stressful as what I had expected.

We were given a buddy and a career coach, who were always checking up and being helpful to make sure that we were ok. On top of this many people in our teams and offices were always around to help or interact with.

As I had said, we had a buddy and a career coach who both helped out a lot to make sure we were always on top of our work. They had also made sure any concerns we had were dealt with in the correct manner and what was comfortable for us.

We were on client engagements through out the internship, but we were also given a lot of time to actually explore the office and have catch-ups with people in areas we were interested in. This meant we experienced work but also got to learn about pwc as a whole.

We were given a fair amount of work to cover, although it wasn't a huge amount of work. I feel like they couldn't give us a huge amount because a lot of the work is heavily regulated and must be completed by someone with the relevant experience.

This gave me a great insight into the world of work, and office life. It also helped me a lot in terms of time management and working effectively. Furthermore I was able to meet with the actuarial department, as I am studying actuarial science. So it was good to learn how university work applies to real life work and the type of work that they do. It would definitely help me later in life.

Atmosphere was very relaxed. Everyone was responsible for themselves, so if they were busy they would work, however other may be more relaxed. It was good because it meant that you make sure you get your work done but you're not over stressing.

The internship was set up very well. The structure of everything from the induction, to getting our laptops and phones to the end is all very seamless. Also with the help of our career coach and buddy, the whole process in general wasn't difficult at all.

The company had invested a lot of time and help into my personal development. As I was in an audit internship but from an actuarial science degree, I wanted to learn more about actuarial science. They helped a lot to set up meetings with the actuarial science team, as well as shadowing opportunities which were very insightful.

They are very appealing. I would love to work here in a graduate job because I know that it is a very nice place to work at but they also help us develop our careers a lot. Also there are many departments to choose from.

Yes it was very good because a lot of the time, we were working around each other, therefore it meant we usually had lunch together and after work especially on fridays we went out.

As I live from home the cost of living was just as normal, however London can be quite expensive. Although there were some decent food places nearby which weren't that expensive.

London is great for nightlife so much to choose from!

People were always suggesting different activities, especially if there were benefits through PwC.
