Pros

The people, the culture (great team building nights out and organised activities), excellent stepping stone into the London market and beyond

Cons

Limited to exposure to products and skills, good salaries for local company but many people find they use this as a stepping stone, great local company but people outgrow it in my experience

Pros

There is NO pros to this company.

Cons

HP Hood treats employees like an experimental lab rat. They MAKE employees work various hours, instead of giving them a set schedule. When management is done experimenting with you, they throw you out to the snakes. They take anybody but fire everybody quickly before their 4 month probation is over. $350 union initiation fee is NOT refundable either. Don't bother requesting floating/vacation days off, they will reject your request. There is no opportunity for advancement, majority of everything is based on seniority. They fake documentation records by having employees re-copy and change a few items on their paperwork, so they don't get in trouble by the auditors. No one feels happy. Co-workers are friendly though, but work-life feels like your being locked up in a cage. Everything is about numbers, instead of accuracy of product or safety of the employees.
