Pros

My line manager is a good person and seems to be trying their best but is not good at their job. Most colleagues genuinely want to help you do your job and are open to changes. Pay better than same role at previous job.

Cons

Only exists as a company to make money and very open about that fact. Silo working: different departments do not talk to each other despite their activities directly affecting the others e.g. planning and costing. Some managers engaged in politics and power struggles which is very off putting when trying to do your job. Blatent arrogance and see-through brown nosing met with rewards. Promotion decisions based on how well liked employees are, not their achievements. Equipment old and not looked after. More desk work than nessecary due to bureaucracy. Overstaffed with unqualified people.

Pros

My job allows for me to creatively problem solve. Very competitive pay. Excellent work life balance.

Cons

The only con is the dress code. Dressing business professional to visit customers is no issue. But working day to day with colors in business professional dress can be messy.

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.
