Pros

The CAS management team was one of the best management experiences in my career. I appreciated their open-door policy. If my manager was unavailable, I could always reach out to any manager on the team and my concerns would be heard and noted. All concerns were addressed in a timely manner and without biased feedback. I loved the travel, and Nihon Kohden was more than compensating in the daily per diem compared to other companies. Nihon Kohden's employee recognitions program makes you feel valued as an employee. I really hated to leave but would definitely recommend this company.

Cons

Limited career opportunities for growth. The initial education training lack's structure to how you should expect to teach in the field. The AE's makes promises to customers about products when they lack the knowledge on the products making implementations more challenging for the clinical team.

Pros

I love how the entire clinical team is made up of registered nurses. This really makes a difference when we go into hospitals to educate because the staff trust us more than some sales person in a suit. The clinical management team was always available and supportive. They provide you the tools to do your job, trust you to do your job, and they do not micromanage. They listen to your feedback and idea and want to make changes for the team. The products are reliable and last forever.

Cons

Although the company is growing, it is still a relatively small company so career advancement opportunities are limited. The travel is tough and being gone from home every week is tiring. I know this is a travel job so it comes with the job but still. Product training is not good and somewhat confusing at times. I felt like the educator did not want to be there. Overall, better/more communication from upper leadership on how the company is doing, new developments, changes, etc. The marketing department is disappointing. It takes way too long to receive a response back and when they do, the product managers don't really have answers.
