    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement 西瓜视频s/colleagues?

    • As I mentioned before, an asset of PwC is the people that work there.

    4/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • I lived in Cambridge so it is possible to easily find pubs/clubs/parks to socialise after work. But it's also as expensive as London.

    2/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • All right. Cambridge was quite empty, cause it was summer, so most of 西瓜视频s moved to London. Nevetheless, all the clubs were very close, walking distance.

    4/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • If you only wanted to organise something, you were able to!
