Hershey Company Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Good pay for the work

PTO for a part time worker

Review from Sales Dept

Quarterly bonuses safety glasses and steel toe allocations annually

Very fair pay for the volume of work I do

All of it is great

401k matching, good bonus' structure

Review from Product Dept

I love our savings bank, but all of them are great.

Majority of the monetary benefits are highly competitive. HMO and other benefits are received upon the first month instead of upon regularization.

Vacation time off with family

The best part is the new update and the best game I ernings

Review from Product Dept

our incentive and leave/flexibility in working

It began upon hire some companies make you wait

The fact that they even have one at all. Most jobs now a days don't offer that.

Review from Operations Dept

The benefit reward system. We get free gift cards by accumulating "Smile" points we earn while working by going above and beyond, winning a contest, or taking shifts others don't want.

Review from Sales Dept

Fair salary, bonus, and benefits

Review from Sales Dept

Very good benefits package, happy with this.

Review from Product Dept

their wages are very competitive

Review from Operations Dept

Free tickets to the park

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

The rate for my job at other locations is higher, along with a higher cap. And I believe there should be better options for earning vacation time, and it not require a ridiculous amount of overtime. Salary jobs are allowed to buy what seems to be unlimited vaca, while hourly can buy 5 starting 2024

competitive wages ( Hershey in Hershey Pa. use to be the best place in the area to work. now we are along with the crowd. I wish we were leaders again.

Profit Sharing and/or a pension based on profits.

Inexperienced lower and upper management destroys the companies ability to be more profitable.

Hundreds of us employees get no benefits. There is no paid sick, vacation or personal time for hundreds of employees. We are nothing more than struggling gig workers.

when your working 12 hours shifts for 6 days in a row, that's a lot and you don't know your schedule under 3 days before your new schedule starts, when you can't have a life outside of work, you need paid better

Being paid more for the work done. Although I am part time and benefits are not assumed, with as much money as I bring in doing retail, I feel as though myself and others should be paid more fairly which would also help staffing

Review from Sales Dept

I feel very much under paid for the work I do

Review from Product Dept

To get paid the same rate as the other employees since we do the same job. New hires hired after 2010 make $6 less than the ones hired before it and we do the same job. It would be fair to make the same.

Review from Operations Dept

they have a 2 tier wage system so i do the same job for significantly less money as those with a few years more experience than me
