Pros

The hourly wage pays a decent amount The company has good health benefits through the employee union

Cons

Unsafe working facilities. Unable to incorporate many important safety procedures due to high volume work load. Which is scary when working with acidic and corrosive chemicals Huge disconnect between corporate and general employees, which made trying to make changes/improvements extremely difficult There is a union and HR, but I found that neither one does much to protect employees when difficult situations come up Facilities understaffed. High volume work load and not enough staff members. Causing many mistakes, chemical spills, and countless hours of mandated unwanted overtime High turnover from temporary and full-time employees. Due to high work load and minimal if no official training Think twice before excepting a job here

Pros

Hawkins is an exceptional company with a solid growth record. The people are welcoming, the leadership team is approachable, and goals/responsibilities are clearly defined. Compensation is above industry averages. Benefits are exceptional.

Cons

Everyone has a lot on their plate so organization and solid work ethic are important. Not necessarily a con, but may present as a challenge to some. For others, it's an opportunity to grow.
