Pros & Cons

  • Flexibility to WFH whenever I want (please omit this as it will not apply to all interns). People here are great. Company understands that you are a Junior/Intern and wants you to learn/ doesn't expect you to perform as well as established staff. Staff home loan rates.
  • Great mentorship during the internship program. Felt as though the tasks and expectations were very well calibrated for a first time internship.
  • Team has been absolutely great, extremely welcoming and willing to mentor and guide me throughout the tasks I'm assigned should I have any issues. Overall a very friendly team, where I feel comfortable enough to reach out to managers/senior managers if I find the need to.
  • Culture that is welcoming and promotes personal career development
  • The culture is very supportive, welcoming and inclusive. I know I can always ask for help when I need it. My work changes a lot from week to week - I enjoy the variety.
  • When trying to increase capacity for work, the process can be timely.
  • The only downside would be the team being split across Australia so there are not as many in the office I'm in, but not really a concern for me personally.
  • Inability to rotate teams as an intern and experiment
  • Initially, there was a lot of change happening, which made it hard as a first corporate role. It took a while to adjust to everything as things would change so often. I think that was bad timing.
  • Technology isn't as developed as other companies

Training
The formal training consisted of simple modules that were very general but related to the industry. I found much more value from the in-formal training where my mentors worked with me to develop my skills in my day to day work.
