I am an undergraduate engineer working in software and currently practising and doing onramps to do my project. I sit in meetings and take notes while brushing up on my programming skills.
I've learnt to program. I've learnt to use new software. I've learnt to cook. I've learnt to complete the rubik's cube
I love it, the people here are so unique and helpful
Very organised
My manager catches up with me every week to review and plan my progress. My team always help me when I'm stuck and dial me into interesting meetings. Help is literally one message/call away or right outside my door step.
I meet with my tutor fortnightly and the time is designated to my specific needs which I love. She's patient and gentle and she loves helping me, I enjoy this time mostly because I get to speak my true mind.
Yes, it helps me a lot for example, I never knew how to program before I got to Dyson but my first rotation was in Electronics and I learned applied programming with my training provider so it helped me in my first role. I've definitely put theory into practice.
There are many extra-curricular activities e.g. the football team, yoga, fitness club, cooking club etc..
Yes
It is so different to the rest and you get to learn so much even when not at work.
You've got to love to learn!
