Kyocera reviews

Company lacks resources needed to compete in some deals, the wrong people are identified as performers

The high-mix low-volume production processes utilize old equipment and are not exciting. Walk the halls and you will notice that the promotional information about the core products has not changed in years. Very few new products are developed because there is more security in legacy parts. Operators are not fairly compensated and process engineers are hired through a temp agency. Most of the technical information is intentionally hidden in the minds of the experienced, which you are expected to know but is never taught to you. In most cases you are told to go find out on your own and present data, mostly so you can be told you are wrong by senior management. Pay is not competitive. Raises are not awarded based on technical competence but instead given to those who spend more than ten hours/day and work late or weekends. Management is inflexible and has unrealistic expectations.
