Pros

Salary and Benefits That is the only thing good about this place.

Cons

No work life balance. Management doesn't care if you have a life outside of the job. Rule by fear - everyone is afraid of losing their jobs or getting written up for making a mistake. GMs exert way too much pressure on their employees. Management does not listen to what their employees are telling them about what needs to be fixed. Horrible systems. No solid processes in place.

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.
