The Role
Really enjoyed my time at the office.
Colleagues got my involved as much as they could when they could.
Was given ideas for help during internship and the future
Most of the time very busy. Odd moment when not a huge amount to do
Given as much responsibility as possible at clients etc
Not so much for my degree but definitely for the future
The Company
Not silly amounts of fun but surprisingly more relaxed and friendly than my initial perception
Some issues with busy management but other than that was pretty well run
Very good induction week for training
Very good company that respect employees
The Culture
Away days and events keeping everyone interested
I already live in the area as a student which made it a lot cheaper
Student city
Lots of things particularly sport
