Job for the desperate - Anonymous employee Great Southern Wood Employee Review

Given a lot of responsible and opportunities to learn and work on projects but also a lot of freedom in doing so. I felt like a part of the team and not just an intern which I greatly enjoyed. In terms of the companies view on the internship, they put a lot of effort into setting you up for success in your future whether that be with them or a different company down the road. We did multiple intern activities that kept things entertaining and also did a lot of networking and resume/linkedin work which was very helpful. Overall an amazing company and I enjoyed my summer there.

My role was newer, so there wasn't a ton of guidance off the bat. I had to find some projects to work on and such. Overall though I think this was a positive because it helped me with self motivation.

Working here has truly been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From day one, I’ve felt like part of a family, not just a team. Everyone looks out for each other, celebrates each other’s successes, and steps up to help whenever it’s needed. The leadership genuinely cares about us as people, not just employees, and it shows in the way they support worklife balance and growth opportunities. It’s so rewarding to come to work every day knowing I’m surrounded by people who want the best for one another. If you’re looking for a place to build a career and be part of a workplace family, this is it. I couldn’t recommend it more!

Even though I’m in recruiting it’s hard to meet everyone that is hired on in other locations.
