Pros

I like the people. Everyone cares about what they are doing. I also feel supported and valued.

Cons

Can be challenging at times as our division is different than the other divisions so our business is not always understood.

Pros

Employees will be rewarded with opportunities to move within the organization including growth and development if they are willing to work hard. Executive leadership is very engaging and willing to listen to process improvements.

Cons

Functional silos within the company sometimes make it difficult to get things done. But it's something that the company is aware of and addressing.

Pros

If you were the type of person in school who suffered through group projects because you knew you would end up doing most of the work or were always taking the lead, working at Sensient will be refreshing for you. All of the employees are A-players and take pride in the work they do. Knowing your peers are also putting in their best effort to a project, allows you to focus on your work and deliver results. Sensient cultivates an environment of high performance. You will likely be given opportunities to work on completely new experiences/areas at some point, but if you are the type that enjoys new challenges and growing as a professional- you will thrive here and find the support you need. Sensient also makes your career path a high priority. You have the opportunity to create your own development plan, and then work with your managers to accomplish those goals and more. You will also work on unique projects for one of the leading companies in the industry. You will get experience working with companies ranging from multinationals to start-ups across product categories. Everyday brings something new to the table, which makes it even more exciting.

Cons

Like other companies of this size, change can occur slower than most employees would like.
