Working in tech development roles making use of a variety of tools depending on which team you are assigned to with flexibility to change teams if dissatisfied with your current location. Additionally access to multiple on the job training tools.
Within the first 6 months I have learnt about & developed Mendix (Low Code), Programming Fundamentals, Agile Working, Presentation Skills, Programing Skills, UI/UX Fundamentals.
It is a very enjoyable programme that has yet to get in the way of my personal life thanks to the flexible working times and location.
The structure does shift depending on the team you are assigned to but overall it is quite well structured.
I have two forms of 'buddy' support that I can report to for questions and issues. Additionally my team members are very open to questions and helping.
There is a large amount of support, the leaders within the organisation are very interested in our success and take steps to help ensure we meet goals and objectives within the apprenticeship along with giving us time for a degree tasks.
Many of the lessons they give us are almost immediately relevant to our day to day work or at least tangentially related.
There are many social activities, social networks and networking events within PwC.

While hard to get in, the support, opportunities and workplace quality is very much so worth the effort required to make it past their applicant process.
PwC is very interested in authenticity in its applicants.
