As this is my first job in my career path after leaving university, I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of day-to-day responsibilities. I have been really enjoying the work and am interested in what I do, the only downside is there is quite a bit of Maths involved which is not much strong point, I am more of a Science and English person.
At the moment, I'm doing a variety of smaller things but there is no definitive responsibility that I have. I enjoy doing what I do but I do not like sitting around doing nothing, which of recently has been the case for some days.
I am quite satisfied with my work. I enjoy seeing what I have created being used and it helping and improving the way we do things.

Good people—I feel very welcomed and a part of the team.
Large business, lots to learn, variety of projects.
They allow me to move the hours I work around to fit personal commitments and issues.
WM does what it can to reduce environmental impacts from landfill gas capture to electric fleets.
There is a huge focus on each other's diversity; special days in different cultures are often celebrated.
There is quite an issue with the communication, but this is something that is being worked on.
Yet to have a big responsibility, and ambiguity in my role within the business.
Sometimes there are lulls in the work available. This does allow for creative thought, but it can feel slow.
Some of the older/smaller sites are left behind in terms of office space, location, and facilities.
The pay is as expected considering I am a graduate, but I know there is potential for an increase.
