It can be your colleague, your team lead or even your boss you can be thankful to, fora great working experience. Or it can be a friend with whom you are doing a school project too. Since you liked working with them, expressing that is a worthy gesture. But a thank you doesn’t really sum up the feeling well in an informal way.
