Reviews
I like how varied my day to day responsibilities are and how they allow me to work with different people with different skills and expertise.
As a temporary undergrad role, I felt like I was often floating about and would have preferred a higher degree of responsibility.
Largely part of the fit out team, I have been responsible for building/pushing programmes, ensuring works are meeting technical specs., documenting quality and sequencing works for partitions, waterproofing, painting and frames/doors. On top of this, I have had exposure to commercial roles through assessing variation claims for subcontractors on-site.

Pros and cons of working at Lendlease
Pros
Projects are very interesting and exciting. Systems are well defined, rigorous, and make sense most of the time. People are smart and passionate about the industry.
Everyone is understanding of my lack of knowledge in the industry due to lack of experience. They are welcoming and willing to teach the basics about construction.
Getting assigned to different roles/areas of the business which helps provide myself more information on the various areas and give me an idea on what area I would want to pursue in the future
Cons
Long hours
I think the worst thing for me personally is the commute, I spend upwards of 2.5 hours driving per day and if I was to take Public transport it would be 4 hours. However I do have a good understanding of sacrifice and believe it is worth it.
I would like to receive more feedback.
