Pros

Good benefits/Pay/work environment - They are trying to do the right things but President is creating a fear culture and is a major obstacle in every day operations. Everyone is looking for a new job.

Cons

Poor leadership. Interim President has no idea how to run the company - leads by fear. COO/CEO need to closely monitor his behavior - he is running the company to the ground by creating this fear culture. You walk in every morning not knowing if you will be fired regardless of how good you preform. Leadership is unrealistic and does not respect its employees. No human respect. No work life balance - they do not care if you have a life outside of work.

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.
