      A Company Worth A Try

      Pros

      The pay was not bad. Most people are friendly here. Good training. There are well designed principles and instructions and may help you to get on track soon at work.

      Cons

      Salespeople are the top priority in this company. If you are not a salesperson, be prepared that you will be treated as second class. And there's a strict rule about off work -- You can not off work more than 9 days (weekends and holidays included).

      Hard Work, moderately rewarded.

      Pros

      Expenses paid, strong base salary, excellent technical training and support, travel (could go either way), never see your boss.

      Cons

      Never see your boss/limited feedback. Travel. Long hours. High expectations. Lack of transparency in terms of bonuses and promotions. Glad I got on management's good side because if I didn't life would be a lot harder.

      A company that knows how to take care of its employees

      Pros

      Keyence compensates us very well compared to other opportunities out there. Most managers are great, supportive and don't micromanage. The products are also some of the best out there, so they are easy to stand behind in a sales role. The company is also growing very quickly and is taking on more managers and promoting from within. Overall this is a fantastic job for a young person willing to travel and put in the effort. I have recommended it to several friends already.

      Cons

      Personally I find some aspects of sales stressful, but that doesn't necessarily reflect on the company itself. Beyond that, the usual growing pains associated with a quickly growing company... training could be optimized a little better, communication is occasionally lackluster between corporate and sales offices.
