Pros
Personally I feel that the biggest part of your working day is who you spend you time with. The Kier team are a friendly bunch of people who will assist you if they can.

Each site consists of friendly helpful people, and for me, that's what makes it great to work at Kier.

Hi there, thanks for your feedback!
We're really pleased to hear that you feel supported and are part of a friendly team! This is the type of culture and environment that we want to be created in all aspects of the company.
In regards to your cons, we appreciate that at times workload can be high and keeping up with demand can be a challenge - we'd never want things to get too much for our employees, so if it ever does, we encourage you to use lines of support such as your line manager or HR business partner.
Thanks again!
