I enjoy my programme a lot. Having the support of the other apprentices makes the programme really enjoyable and everybody at the company is very friendly.
I feel very valued at PwC and feel like I am praised for the work I do. I feel like I have the opportunity to get involved in a variety of projects and you can get recognition if you do something particularly well.
The programme is structured well and we all know what we need to be doing at what times to complete our apprenticeship within the given time scale.
Our college is very helpful and deals with problems quickly and our tutor is happy to help with any problems we have.
I receive lots of support from my employer. If I ever had any problems I would know who to contact and how to get help.
My salary meets my costs well and I am able to cover my travel costs, living costs and social costs. However if I did not live at home with my parents I would find it difficult to meet my costs as a flat would cost a lot.
PwC hold many events and there are lots of clubs you can join. There are always projects outside of work like local community projects and voluntary work. There are always socials and company events to attend so you can get to know your colleagues better.

Great employer. Good reputation. Willing to invest in your future.
Ensure you do plenty of research before attending your interview. You need to know the company's values and services they provide really well. Also ensure you have good awareness of what is currently happenin in the industry.
