Very flexible, relaxed work-life balance and a gorgeous glass building with a view on the 8th floor!
What I wish was different
I wish I had been assigned more projects, but at the time the company was going through a merging process, so it was a period of less activity.
Advice
Definitely attend all the lunch and learns, you will make great connections there and have a great meal!
