The Role
I enjoyed my work. Sometimes there was too little to do though.
They were all very friendly. And helpful.
Mine was a new role so i had to learn things on my own. I did have help from the US.
somedays are very busy the others weren't. The work wasn't evenly spread.
A lot of it. My weekly reports were looked into by teams and management.
I have learned a lot. And will be using them all my life.
The Company
Very quiet and serious. But never dull.
Not that well. They hadn't planned ahead what I was to do and the training I needed.
They went all out to see to it that I was well trainined. I even went to the US.
