Be part of the First Family

"From the day you start, everyone's very welcoming. I was training in Paddington and people who I'd never met before came up to say hello."

"The thing I like about my job is coming to work every day, getting something different to do, different routes, meeting new people...different sorts of people from all over the world"

"You support your family, and you should do the same at work, you support your friends, your colleagues and you even support the customers who come in and out."

"There is that family feel and spirit amongst the team. We celebrate success and support each other"

"Being a female driver it does come with a lot of respect. I do enjoy telling people I'm a train driver, you often have to tell them twice!"

"I've done various different courses to personally develop myself. First ScotRail has supported me greatly over the last 5 years."

"You do feel that there's a good sense of family when you're working in your day to day job. You've always got that support from your fellow colleagues."

"I really enjoy helping people and providing information to people travelling with First. "

"First operates as a family unit. I can think of a time when I worked on the Olympic contract project and we pulled in people from across the company, people who hadn't worked together or met before yet we all knew the common goal we were aiming for"

"Family is everything to me. When you're working with the same people 5 days a week, you trust them and form a family"

"Opportunities are rife. If you want to be educated and you want to better yourself, there's opportunities at every corner"

"As a Train Driver there's a lot of responsibility, but it's great to know that you have great support from across the business."

"I've never had a boring day here. Never!"

"Apart from the day to day job of Train Driver with such a large company, it gives you long term security, excellent job benefits, we also get little benefits on the side"

"First offers lots of career progression and has been a fantastic place to start a career."

"If anyone's got a problem, we're not scared to ask. We're all here to help each other"

"First ScotRail have been great at supporting me, from when I first came into the role, they've been brilliant. The training gives you the confidence coming into a new job with the right tools to start with."

"The company has supported me when there's been difficult days, and you just need someone to welcome you back to the station and set you off on the right foot"

"Working for First Great Western is like having a second family"

"The station team all work together and get on as a great support network."

"First Transpennine have invested heavily in me with training and opportunities, which has given me a lot of confidence in my role. "

"There's a real family atmosphere in the garage, all the guys get on so well and we're good friends"

"The business has been very good to me. I've been given a lot of empowerment to go out and seek what I want."

"The business has supported me quite a lot since I started. The training for my PCV licence, ongoing training, customer service and health and safety."

"Working for First Great Western is a nice family atmosphere. People are there to help you and they do help you."

"It's like a community, we're working towards the same goal, to keep our customers happy and offer them the best service possible"

"I really like the enthusiasm and passion that we've got here for making a difference to customers"

"You learn to be able to work together as a team. You have fun, you have laughter in work, you enjoy what you do"

"Working for First Transpennine whilst I complete my degree has convinced me to want to work full-time here once I graduate."

"You don't feel like you're coming into work, you feel like you're coming in to see people that you like."

"It's very important for me to feel supported and that's something that's happened coming into this role"

"The variety of my role is just great, I get a buzz out of coming to work!"
