I have learned so much working at Symrise. 
When I started there I was just a stay at home mom working part time as a descriptive analyst for Pepsi, and then a whole world of sensory was opened up to me. 
I was lucky enough to have a team that supported me and trained me to be able to handle many things. Managing the daily functions of the lab, scheduling tests, paying external panelist, helping in Marketing, being able to make simple taste solutions to making references for training external an internal panelists. 
 
What I love most about my job is the people. There is about 300 employees and with my position I have gotten to know almost everyone.

While an exciting and challenging career, the most difficult aspect is the commute.

My experience at Symrise NYC was cool. Yummy snacks and perks every so often. Everyone is passionate about their role and of the company. Winning is key and you'll always notice how driven and serious they are base on how they walk, talk, and facial expression: it keeps you going! But didn't get the proper compensation/benefits that I deserve. Left for better pay and growth. Would definitely recommended working at Symrise: especially if you're a newly grad with interest in Cosmetic Chemistry/Product Marketing/Management etc. 

In my opinion,
Incredible company to work for before the Germans bought it (Symrise).  When it was an American owned company, safety and environmental aspects were the priority.  After the Germans bought the company, safety considerations went to garbage. Safety became a last issue with them immediately, removing first aid kits plant wide.  They promoted a non safety first atmosphere.  They promoted an operator with a high school degree to be their Plant Manager.  Who does that?  And the operator that they promoted was a mediocre operator at that.  Makes you wonder what he did to suck up for this position.  He certainly wasn't smart enough to deserve this.

The work was physical and repetition. There was room for advancement.I gained and added more manufacturing experience. I also achieved multiple certifications in the food industries.For the most part management was constant in achieving the tasks at hand.The work environment was fairly relaxed and yet some what demanding at times. The hardest part of the job would be the physical aspect. The challenges we faced on a daily basis.

Mastered the skills as a Production Assistant to become a Chemical Compounder within 2 yrs of employment. My co-workers were team players and this allowed production to run smoothly. Management was fair and responsive any situations needed to complete production. Shift work was the hardest part of my job. The most enjoyable part of my job was working in the field of manufacturing. I also enjoyed learning new skills to help me advance.

On a daily basis working as a lab technician in a fragrance company consist of compounding bases according to the perfumers or clients needs. Making sure that everything is as accurate and precise as it can, also ensure that the samples are delivered and shipped it in a timely manner.

Working with my co workers are the most enjoyable part of the job. Getting to know each other and making fun of one another is the most rewarding part of the day. It's less stressful and good to take your mind off of other things for a time being.

The work isn't hard really, the issue is the people and management or should I say lack of management. Certain people can and will get away with murder but others can not! There are people in management that shouldn't be! People don't have to show up to work and thats fine, the ones who do show up will just have to pick up the slack! There is NO diversity and it shows!!  The way people act and create each other is very high school. Its not bad everyday but when its bad OMG its bad.
