Pros

HKA has improved considerably over the last 4 years. It is a very collaborative environment to work in where all staff are valued. There are real opportunities for staff to develop and for new hires.

Cons

Initiative overload, but this is improving!

Thank you for saying HKA is a "great company to work in" - wonderful to read and as you know, we also continue to focus our energy and plans to improve further. I saw you are a Partner in Glasgow and you have worked with us for over 8 years. Thank you so much for sharing your HKA experienced view and for all you do to make HKA successful and better each year. I totally agree with you; and my lived experience is that HKA is very collaborative and we truly value our people. As you said, "there are real opportunities for our people to develop and for new hires" . We are a growing company and look to recruit more brilliant and diverse people to join us. Anyone interested in joining us should connect with our super Global Recruitment and Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Director - Chris Bernard - as she will be delighted to hear of an interested candidate and help move any application further forward. (her email is chrisbernard@hka.com) I do understand your point under "Cons" - yes, we do have much work in progress at the moment and happy to read you see that we are improving. I agree with your "Advice to Management" - we need to keep staying visible. This visibility is particularly important during this pandemic, when our people are juggling personal and professional challenges which we need to support. Thank you for your post. Please keep well. Please also continue working at HKA and improving our firm together. Best regards Kate Wood Chief People Officer, Partner
