The Role
a very enjoyable place to work, great socializing and a great place to work
treated like a full time employee and made a lot of friends
i was given good reviews, weekly 1:1's and performance reviews with my team.
never massively busy, always something to do, but there were some quiet times.
i was given a lot of responsibility, and was personally responsible for millions of dollars every month.
a lot of training was given to me here, all of which i will continue to use.
The Company
always good to work, and a fun atmosphere
as a big company employing around 60 interns every year, they know what they are doing.
