What are the Best and Worst things about your job?

Best

Being able to work with a wide variety of individuals, not just in our Ipswich office but also in the London and international offices.
We always face new and exciting tasks on a daily basis, some which are complex and some which do become second nature.
There's always the opportunity to gain new skills through projects that can be offered to you from different colleagues. I had this when I was offered to work on a project in London where I spent a month of my time working there - this opened up so many opportunities

Worst

For me there really aren't many disadvantages, if so none at all. I guess with all work the transition of school and college over to full-time work was hard at the start. Especially after having about 13 weeks off for summer!
But after a while it got easier and easier, everyone will go through this sometimes in life and Willis were very supportive of how we went about this period.
