The Role
Great to be honest
Felt like I was part of the team
Great guidance and support
Bored or too busy is fairly accurate although more towards busy or too busy!
A fair amount of responsibility and the onus was really upon you.
Thoroughly enjoyed my time partly because I got to see so many different departments and therefore jobs.
The Company
Great atmosphere especially at market close and opening
Very well organised overall
Fair amount of investment with socials organised etc.
Subsidised Canteen
Subsidised/Company Gym
Would love to work for them!
The Culture
Social scene was one of the highlights, quite simply fantastic
Relatively expensive
Fantastic bars and clubs
There were ample opportunities none which personally interested me so I didn't get involved.
