It is good to hear that work life balance stood out as a positive during your time with us, as creating sustainable ways of working is something we know matters to our people. At the same time, we recognise your concerns about technical exposure in software roles. As a multidisciplinary organisation, offering deeper and more varied technical pathways is something we continue to develop, particularly as digital and software capabilities grow across the business. We also appreciate your feedback regarding salary, which remains an important part of overall satisfaction and is kept under regular review. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for the contribution you made during your time with Mott MacDonald.

Early career experiences can really shape how people view the industry, so it is great to see you found the projects interesting during your internship. We also appreciate your honest feedback about quieter periods. Finding the right balance between giving interns meaningful work and managing project demands can be a challenge at times, and it is something we continue to work on to make sure placements feel engaging and valuable throughout. Thank you for sharing your experience and for the contribution you made during your internship in Boston.
