HKA is developing

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Collegiate (not perfect, but works hard at it), Top quality global work, Working to develop a genuine (not just tickbox) EDI approach

Cons

Not as well known (yet!) as it should be outside construction, clearly some prior issues (I wouldn't have joined if I felt the Glassdoor reviews reflected the current firm)

Thank you so much for recommending HKA and for your "HKA is developing" headline. We really appreciate you sharing your views as a current employee/Partner in our London office. Good to read that you think we are collegial. "Top quality global work, working to develop a genuine (not just tickbox) equality, diversity and inclusion approach". I have been at HKA roughly the same time as you and I agree with your points. I also think you are right in your points under "Cons" and "Advice to Management" - we do need to do more to be better known and promote the positive and ongoing progress in HKA. Thank you for all you are doing to help HKA continue to improve. I passionately believe it is our people that make the difference. We know what more we have to do and our collaboration across the HKA world is excellent and is helping us to achieve fast and great progress. Thank you. Keep well too, particularly during this challenging pandemic times. Best regards Kate Wood Partner, Chief People Officer

Thank you for posting as a former employee of HKA. We welcome all views, as we then can consider the feedback and look to improve further. Part of our continuous improvement journey, now includes us reviewing every post on Glassdoor. Great to read that you think " Founders were great, interesting projects and good support ". Thank you also for recommending HKA to others - we appreciate your support. You made a constructive challenge - thank you - about "second tier leaders not so good" . I respect that this is your view and of course that every person will have their own opinion on leaders across HKA. I can say that I do think we have brilliant people at HKA and also we are developing our people further, including our leaders, as we continue to support them to grow at HKA both personally and professionally. Thank you so much again for sharing your views on HKA. Stay safe and keep well, particularly during this pandemic times. Wishing you well in your new Company. Have a great 2021.

Thank you so much for recommending HKA, especially as you have worked with us for over five years. Delighted that your view is that we have "great and valued people". Appreciate your list of Pros and we do work hard to care for our brilliant people; so lovely to note that your view is that we do care. I welcome understanding more about your Cons and do feel free to meet with me; as perhaps we can do more here. It certainly takes our full team to make HKA a great place to work and to continue our growth; so our corporate functions are vital to us. Thank you for all you have achieved in your time with HKA. We thank you and hope you continue to stay with us. Finally, apologies that I am only now replying to your post. One of our ongoing improvement actions is to reply to all of our posts on Glassdoor - so we are catching up as quickly as we can! Keep well. Thank you for posting again. Best regards Kate Wood Partner, Chief People Officer
