The Role
Everyone was really supportive and trusted me with their work
My manager was usually busy with her own work but still tried to find time to help
very fast paced environment
Too much responsibility initially but now im comfortable
Great skills - team work, communication, working to deadlines, working under pressure
The Company
Sometimes we have laugh other times we're too busy working
Initially it took a while for all access to be granted and there wer a few issues with contracts
Something... Time was invested but not enough initially i'd say
Defo wanna come back!!
The Culture
Yes but it helps if everyone starts at the same time or else newbees just get left out
Theres a pub across the road which had decent food - its student central here so cheap for drinks etc
Student central - so the usual vibe
Various charity cake sales, marathons etc
Details
