Pros

The experience and coworkers are great. I love the technology I work with. I love the fact that, in growing, management recognizes the need to be flexible with us while maintaining high standards. Things change a lot so adjusting to the changes gives a good bit of flexibility to influence direction and culture.

Cons

Since I work in the office every day, unlike sales, there's more micromanagment but it's still not too bad. The culture there is definitely much more strict than most American companies these days from what I've seen and understood which can make for a boring and undesirable work environment but it's mangable.

Pros

I like working for a company with such high standards for how I am to represent them. I like that customers generally know us reps to be very knowledgeable, dependable, and expect us to provide the best technology to solve their applications. I like that incentives are mostly in the form of money/pay rather than awards. Keyence does a lot to show us where they are saving money to add it to our pay. I like the independence that I have to do my job as I see fit. Very little to no micromanagement.

Cons

It's very difficult to know how you are getting paid. The pay structure is very complicated. But as many times as I wonder why the number came out lower than I expected are the times where the number is higher than I expected. It just needs to be more transparent.
