Pros

Great pay and benefits.Training and safety have gotten better.Helpful co-worker(s) that encourage you to be better than average. Impressed with the level of technical knowledge of some of the production workers.

Cons

Culture of fear-based,"yes man" management.Supervision has "crack the whip" stance that really isn't necessary and counter productive micro managing.

Pros

Best overall Benefit package!! Great work life balance with a leadership team that fosters a culture of trust and continual improvement. Sensient respects it's employees by giving them the support and opportunity to advance within the company. Senior Management Cares - provides the necessary tools to ensure our products are the best!

Cons

People never leave :) High morale and great work environment leads to people staying in positions too long which isn't an issue at the present, but could become an issue if all this wisdom decides to retire all at once!
