Pros
The compensation level at Hawkins and room for financial and career growth is very high. My life has changed significantly since starting at Hawkins 9 years ago.
The average tenure of Hawkins' employees is 7 years, you're working with people who care about what they do, care about our customers and care about the company's performance.
We were the highest performing publicly traded company stock in Minnesota in 2023. We continue to outperform the S&P Small Cap 600 Index, Russell 2000 Index and both Nasdaq Composite & Industrial Indices. This is important to us because we have a competitive ESPP, meaning you directly benefit from Hawkins' stock performance.
Hawkins has been operating since 1938 and we're part of the critical infrastructure everywhere that we operate. You're contributing to safe and clean drinking water in your own community and many others.
It's fun to work at Hawkins, I genuinely enjoy my coworkers' company and look forward to coming to work. There is a good blend of eager young employees and seasoned workers excited about sharing their industry knowledge with the next generation.
Cons
If you're looking for a hybrid or remote position, they are few and far between at Hawkins. We promote an in-person work experience and we benefit from the internal relationship building it creates.
