Pros

Learn a lot, supportive people who will always teach you new things if you show your interested. Mtc is a lovely place and really is surreal going to work each day. Manager/directors were nothing but supportive. Nice cmm’s running up to date pcdmis. Supportive of personal problems. They feel like a family when I was having. Tough times.

Cons

It’s in Woking..the only good thing about Woking is McLaren so that’s a 50/50. Policy’s can be a little woke but so is the rest of the world really so I can’t see really write these as negatives. I enjoyed my time there
