Very process and metric driven.

Field applications engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good supplier lines and exposure to various interesting technologies. Fellow colleagues are great people to work with and are some of the best human beings out there. Great product training every 9 months.

Cons

Can be challenging to implement any long term strategies as directions can change very quickly quarter to quarter, month to month, and sometimes week to week. Health insurance benefit is very poor. Commission incentive is not linear and starts to cut in at a high percentage to plan. Moral is low with a sense of confusion. Process and metric can trump over actual results for political reasons.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good company (One of leading distributors in the world as well as ASEAN region) Good bosses (Always have your back when you need them, fight for your incentives) Good colleagues (Friendly and helpful) Above average pay (Not the highest in the industry but relatively high compare to smaller distributors)

Cons

Horrible workload (Working hour: 9am - 6pm but you are expected to work at home at night as well as during weekends, preparing reports, clearing emails and solving customers problem) For technical team - Not product focus (expect you to sell and promote almost every brands) Cannot grow technically (only have general product knowledge)
