The Role
I have enjoyed the people. However the work content was not as exciting as one would imagine.
Junior people were friendly, but some senior staff seemed annoyed by valid questions.
Great line manager.
Kept busy at all times.
Unurgent jobs, however had to be done.
Very valuable skills in terms of corporate life, IT skills and stress management.
The Company
Friendly
Good structure, although sometimes things took too long.
Haven't learned much at the training.
Company Parties/Events
Low conversion rate.
The Culture
Nice group of people.
Quite expensive.
Suits, models and bottles.
What opportunities?
