Pros

The company operates in a robust industry and offers competitive employee benefits

Cons

Members of the Henkel Bay Point, CA team have misused the company’s corporate mailing system for personal gain. This included utilizing an out-of-state Henkel warehouse to facilitate the shipment of illegal items into California. Unaware of the scheme, employees at remote locations were instructed to repackage and relabel these shipments before forwarding them to a warehouse in Bay Point, CA.
