  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • The work and life balance at Box is really good. I was always busy but never overwhelmed. My managers always asked me if I had too much on my plate or if I would like to take another project depending on my workload. They are very flexible as well which is great!

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • The atmosphere in the office is amazing, all the different teams are very welcoming and you get to share some time with a lot of different people. Everybody is really nice and there is no feeling of hierarchy, as an intern at Box you will never feel like left out.

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • A couple of months before the end of my 6 months internship with them, they actually reached out to me and offered to extend my contract for another year! I believe that Box is really a place where you can evolve and if you have the motivation they will give you the opportunity!

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    • Absolutely, there are a lot of opportunities to go out with coworkers or other interns. People really enjoy spending some time together outside of work to get a chance to chat or have a drink at the end of the week, they will definitely invite you when you first join the company!

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • The office is located in central London so no surprises.. London is very expensive but the compensation of the internship at Box is enough to rent a flat not too far and to afford having a social life. I think London is expensive but it is worth the cost because it's such a great city.

    3/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • London is amazing in terms of nightlife. There are a lot of different things to do, depending on everybody's taste! You can enjoy a quiet night out or have a big party as well. All the various areas and neighbourhoods of London are worth the visit, you need to go and explore!

    5/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
