I enjoy working with my colleagues, and feel that I'm supported by my team, however would like to derive more fulfilment from my role if possible.

I feel that it's well structured - however some more guidance and transparency about the ending of the program, and what the "next steps" are would be good.

A good level of support - the firms culture feels very supportive.

Adequate support.
