HKA Response
4yThank you for sharing your opinion back in October 2019.
I am so sorry that we are only now responding to your views. You will know that HKA has a continuous improvement approach to our organization, and we have recently agreed that every Glassdoor post will receive a reply. We take this action as we respect and value all opinions.
Thank you also for everything you have done to help HKA to grow and improve. You are a current employee with over five years service - so thank you so much.
I am sad to read that you don't view HKA very positively. Of course HKA has evolved/improved much since October 2019. If you still feel this way, do reach out to me as perhaps I can assist you? Also we have two Continent Heads, in Haroon and Jad who care very much about our colleagues in the Middle East; so always feel free to reach out to them too.
Everything we are doing is to make HKA a great place for our brilliant people to work - so I am sad to read that you are not recommending HKA and therefore unlikely to be enjoying your career with us. Do reach out, I can listen and perhaps help you in some way.
I do see HKA very differently to you, albeit that I respect these are your views back in 2019. I joined HKA in April 2020, and I experience colleagues who are passionate about our people and our clients. Promoted colleagues have had salary increases and been recognized for their achievements. Our people are staying with us and our people are the difference in HKA. I experience real collaboration and brilliant ideas coming from our people to make HKA even better.
I can only hope that you too, have experienced the improvements in HKA and you are enjoying your work and experience with us now.
Please do take care, particularly during this pandemic.
If you would like to speak with me or email me...I am here to listen and support. My email is katewood@hka.com
Best regards
Kate Wood
Partner, Chief People Officer.
