      A Nepotistic Dictatorship

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Paycheck showed up every two weeks. My drycleaner got a good business due to the absurd dress code. I learned a lot about how NOT to run a company and how NOT to treat employees.

      Cons

      Narcicistic management, all with the same last name. There is a nepotism policy that is overlooked by upper Management. Upper management is beyond unapproachable. We were told "do not look the President in the eye or speak to him unless spoken to". WTF?

      Management by fear

      Manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good technical facilities and support. Ability to be market leaders if skill retained. Produce quality products

      Cons

      Everyone too terrified to make decisions. Management has responsibility but no authority. People are fired for the smallest thing. Everyone covers their back. Poor retention of senior staff. Head Office out of touch with global markets and staff.

      Old fashioned company

      Pros

      Good benefits and pay but low raises

      Cons

      Sensient is a very strict company to work for. Very strict dress code and rules, lots of pressure on the employees, not a place to grow, you would do the same job for 20 or 25 years if you don't move forwrad and leave to work in another place, no matter what you say about having the ability to give more.
