  • 7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?
  • I live quite far from the office (whether i'm driving or getting the train) and the petrol costs do start to add up... The starting salary isn't fantastic on an apprenticeship and it does take some time to start feeling comfortable.

  • We have company wide events, but they are not as common as we would like and they are not as rewarding. We do have footie on Thursday evening and often have small team catch-ups though, so it all balances out.
