Pluspunten
Gained autonomy and independence working on technical projects with minimal supervision. Opportunity to make technical decisions and own entire projects end-to-end. Exposure to manufacturing industry workflows and business processes. Developed self-reliance and problem-solving skills through independent work.
Minpunten
Unpaid internship despite working on business-critical projects. After completing the internship and demonstrating capability, I was still placed on a probationary contract rather than direct full-time employment, which felt demotivating. The compensation structure does not reflect the complexity and business impact of the work being delivered. Limited transparency around career progression paths and professional development opportunities. Gap between the scope of responsibilities and the level of recognition or rewards provided. Management could be more proactive in acknowledging and rewarding employee contributions.
