The Role
The work place was enjoyable, espeically if your someone who doesn't like clock watching! The only issue I had was that it wasn't acedemically challenging enough.
Very rarely was there any issues between any members of staff, let alone just for me. Most employees are easy going and fun to work with and therefore valued you being around.
Support and Guidance is there so long as your willing to ask, indepdance and an ability to work from your own judgement is vital in this job.
Completely depends on your branch, I was in an very busy branch and this mean't late nights and lots of overtime.
Due to completing the management programme at Enterprise I was given the responsibilty to run the branch and you can't say much better than that really.
I feel that any placement is worthwhile in gaining a better understanding of what you want from life, as for this one placement I feel the only skills you can be certain of gaining is time management as everything else is up to you and how much you want out of it.
The Company
Staff don't hang about in Enterprise, be it promotions or leaving and therefore the dynamic in the office is always changing. I've never not wanted to go in due to the people and therefore can't complain
There is a great structure to the Enterprise program, so long as you progress and hit the targets it is almost seamless. however certain targets focused on specific areas can mean that you can't progress any further till thats completed and that's a real shame.
I attended alot of training days and felt that they really did want to teach you the best practices for doing your day to day job. Aswell as that Enterprise do have a great system for recording successes and failures and allowing comparisions to be made across branches and therefore as a branch you also recieve targeted feedback.

Staff Sales/Staff Shop
They have offered me a job if I want it which is great
The Culture
Due to location differences it was difficult to stay in contact, that said with regular training days every few months you'd always meet up again and it was always positive.
Completely depends on the area that you are in, Enterprise have branches all up and down the UK.
Collegues traveled in from all over so nightlife was almost non-existent due to long hours and long commutes home
Unless you were willing to organise them there were few company wide activities
