      Top Notch Launch Pad

      Area product sales manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Best industry skill up anyone could ever get coming straight out of college. Instant training and value add built into your career path. Great Pay

      Cons

      As you probably have read from many other post, metrics rule all. How else do you build a $5B+ a year sales company with a bunch of college kids selling $100 to $150,000 products. Can't blame the system since it works, but it just has a natural attrition of really well developed sales people moving on into the industry to capture more of the value that Keyence has built into them.

      Comp not on par with work expected

      Sales engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very clear goals and metrics

      Cons

      too many metrics to keep track, commission is determined on a bell curve based on your peers performance for the first quarter (which they DO NOT tell you and it is wildly unfair) travel is brutal, vacation and sick days are extremely strict and very minimal WFH

      dont care about keeping talent

      Technical sales engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good Pay, PTO, Benefits. They give a lot of opportunities to earn more money if you complete the tasks they ask you too.

      Cons

      Dont really care about keeping talented people, just care to hit goals. Not good management, super strict about being at work from 7:30-5 (like cant leave a minute early)
