    A good place to learn and to start your career
    The good thingsSince the number of employees is small the working environment is good. Supervisors are willing to teach without complain. They trust the intern to handle work or documents. I was able to be involved and learn about every department.
    The challengesSince the plant is operated semi auto and also the plant has been operating for about 20 years, a few problems that can be solved often occur especially regarding the equipment.
