Pros

• Pays its employees very well. • Provides a sense of security to its employees in their work environment when working in a not so great area of town. • Provides very generous benefit options to its employees.

Cons

• Management avoided walking by me in the hallways to avoid talking to me on multiple occasions. I would ask to meet with them to discuss my position and goals on multiple occasions, but was ignored every time. • When applying for other internal positions I was never met with to talk about my interest in other positions. An old manager approached me at one point to tell me that a current manager of mine had communicated to not consider me for any positions at all. When asking to meet about this I was ignored yet again. • Incredibly lazy lab staff. About a third to half of the lab staff was notorious for doing nothing with most of their time. They would constantly be sitting around talking, eating, or playing on their phones.

Pros

There is a strong in-office culture with great people who are eager to help one another succeed. Business continues to boom with new developments and provides opportunities across a wide variety of roles for internal promotions. As a leader in the industry, it is easy to stand behind the products made at Sensient and allows for great confidence in what we create.

Cons

The company has a fairly strict policy on working in-office and enforces a business professional dress code, which can be limiting in daily flexibility but does provide strong guidelines for seperating work and personal life.

Pros

Customer-focused, results-oriented, high integrity organization that produces and sells exciting products in global markets. Sensient may not be a household name, but its products are probably in your home, as part of your favorite food and personal care products. This is a company that values and rewards individuals who work hard and help grow the business. A strong focus on coaching and development ensures motivated employees have a path to career growth and fulfillment.

Cons

This is a con only depending on what you are looking for: You can't hide here. This is not the organization for you if you prefer to work M/F from home (Company has always been 5 days in office), or you want a casual work environment. However, if you like a challenge, you have high goals for yourself, and you thrive on showing up, doing your best work, and getting rewarded for your results, you will love it at Sensient.
