Strong culture. Lots of great people and a very inclusive environment that comes from the top down and the bottom up.
The grad program is super social so its easy to immediately feel connected in a new city. The hiring managers work hard to hire people with APS values so you get along pretty well. The culture of the teams varies but is generally pretty positive and the whole department is very caring of grads since most of them started out as grads too.
The workplace culture is great. Colleagues like to socialise, help each other and are generally cooperative.
Workplace culture is very different from my previous work. This is my first corporate work and so far, the stories i heard from my corporate friends are true. You meet different people and you really cant trust everyone. I wouldn't generalize that everyone is bad, but you would really need to choose the people you stick with and careful with your words. Right now, i am okay with my team and the supervisor i have. Hierarchy is really evident especially with our company, but our supervisor helps us build our identity in the company that helps us be more confident.
