Pros
Sensient is an established company not a startup and stock value is a matter of record. Product lines have weathered recent recession fairly well. Corporate culture and values are defined so you know what to expect without fluctuations or surprises.
Cons
Growth has largely been by acquisitions rather than innovations internally. Wants to become a high tech company but lacks understanding of the investments and cultural adaptations it takes to transform to that. Look at how few patents are granted as indication of priority for R&D. Culture focused on production, sales and profits and of course quarterly stock reports. Most employees are treated as expendable and to follow orders. Management was by directive not objective. Leadership, creativity, team work, and celebrating success were not common.
