Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?

Great, we went to the pub as a team in London which was great. Everyone has been so welcoming, we had plenty of social events and I have been more than welcome to join and I feel a part of the team. All the grads have been so nice getting to know my and giving me their time.
