      Pros

      I have worked at Sensient for over a year now. Sensient has a very strong foundation and expects a lot from its employees. Integrity is number one and I greatly appreciate that. They want their employees to be successful, but also accountable. The pace is fast and the bar is set high. If you work hard, you will be recognized and rewarded. It might not be within your time frame, but this is the first company that I have worked for that promoting from within is a priority. Sensient has a strong culture which is not for everyone, however, with an open mind it is easy to be a part of which is great.

      Cons

      The business dress code is difficult for many. It can be seen as a positive or negative. Personally, it makes it easy for me to get dressed each day!

      Pros

      -If you are a hard worker who performs well, there are many opportunities available at Sensient - especially if you can travel or relocate. Sensient likes to promote from within, which I have personally experienced and have witnessed for many other people, so I feel like they really believe in their employees. -I have had some great managers at Sensient. The company expect managers to have consistent one-on-one meetings with employees, and I think that works really well. -Things are also fairly fast-paced, so there is little downtime and your days go by quickly. -The company is very principled and does not tolerate lying, stealing, etc. Seems basic, but they actually take action if people don’t follow the core rules.

      Cons

      -The dress code doesn’t bother me personally, but I don’t think it makes a lot of sense to require suit and tie at all levels. Professional dress is expensive, and not a lot of the positions are dealing with customers. -Because things are fast-paced, training and development isn’t always a priority, although some groups seem to be better at it. -We tend to be reactive, not proactive.
