Pros

There are no clear reasons to work at Sensient Technology nor is there anything positive that can be said regarding the nightmare experience of being employed there.

Cons

The vast majority of employees are miserable working there. The company is run by a group of overly aggressive individuals that have no concern for their employees, are primarily inward focused and are excessively abusive.

Pros

Salary, clean work environment, benefits, free coffee and soda.

Cons

There is a running theme of the "real" reviews of the company. Do not be fooled by the HR mandated reviews that give a positive slant of the company. The company is run like a dictatorship and there is no work/life balance for the employees. They are understaffed at most departments resulting in many temps who do not have the knowledge base to perform their duties. They do not respect their employees and are treated as expendable. This company has the worst work culture I have ever seen.
