    Depending on the project you get, the stress level and work-life balance differs.
    The good thingsThankfully, my boss is supportive and kind. She always motivates me whenever I am feeling down. Another boss however, always has an impression that her team are not working hard enough. It honestly depends on the team you landed in.
    The challengesThe probationary period from a trainee to a (hopefully) permanent employee is long (12 months period)
