The Role
This is definitely the company to be!
The thing I love the most here is the people and the values each of them uphold. People are competitive yet friendly at the same time
My manager was a really smart guy. However he is more a manager than a friend.
On and off. Some days can be really busy and some days are fine
I was given proper responsibillity to run projects with the guidance of my Vice presidents.
Whatever you will learn here will never be acquired via university or any insight weeks. Teamwork skills, communications, corporate ownership, they are all very valuable to me
The Company
i was in a great team with fun people
The structure was amazing. You get various events to beef up your connections and events like ball and boat party give you a good work life balance
They pay intern almost as much as grad, if not the same
You need to work here. The people are so diverse
The Culture
I made some really good friends over here, although I didnt know every single of the interns
When you work as a banker, you spend like a banker too because you need money to sociazlie around
There are pubs around and it was alright
We had a marathon and some CSR activities
