The Role
I loved going into work every day. The people were great to be around as well.
My manager really needed what I was making, and seemed sad to see me go.
If I had any problems I could ask my manager or my buddy, though everyone was friendly enough and more than willing to help.
I was as busy as I wanted to be. There was stuff to do, and if you finish early you can always find more stuff to do (if you want)
What I was asked to do, I could do in my own way.
The framework I used is propriety, however, at the end of the day, I still honed my python skills and used an object database for the first time, so definitely helped in the long run.
The Company
Perfect balance
A few small hiccups up at the start, but nothing major or even that important
For an internship, everything I needed Tech wise was fine. Would've been nice to have more business training though.
Subsidised Canteen
Got a job offer and I can't wait to go back!
The Culture
Yep, always something to do if you wanted to, though no one judged if you just wanted to go home and sleep.
It's London, so naturally above average.
London, I feel that's enough said.
There were quite a few events even for interns, such as rugby.
