The Role
Work was good and very easy to handle
I felt valued by my team and had a good competetive relationship with other teams
Team leaders and team members were very supportive
I was given all daily work while others worked on longer projects (since I was only there for 2 months)
I enjoyed the amount of responsibility I was given
I learnt a number of valuable skills from this role
The Company
Very friendly and open
Very seamless in and out very easily
Since I wasnt staying long it wasnt worth investing in the month long projects I couldnt see through (starting back at Uni)
Subsidised Canteen
Its a good place to work but I have always seen myself in another career
The Culture
I have made a number of friends
Number of cheap shops nearby
N/A
There were opportunities but unfortunately I wasnt working at the time
