The Role
Overall an enjoyable year, but you are working in a challenging environment so there are real demands placed on you.
treated as if the same as all other employees.
good support, but varies between managers.
Never bored, always plenty of work provided.
Given real responsibility. Allowed to spend the company's money and make decisions on its behalf.
great preparation for future employment

friendly, welcoming and supporting environment.
Subsidised Canteen
Subsidised/Company Gym
Company Parties/Events
would be very interested in returning to the company in the future.
The Culture
fair, many placement students were commuting and therefore it was difficult to organise social events.
Lived at home.
Coventry isn't great, but easy to get to B'ham or Leamington
