Pros

Keyence is a global leader in factory automation equipment. They are an extremely profitable company, look after their employees by providing financial security and reward with industry leading incentives that could be a combination of financial, recognition & awards, promotion, etc. Keyence is extremely profitable due to constantly releasing high-end automation-related technology that is second to none in their respective marketplace with a high performance working culture where you are developed to your true peak performance as well as learning to maintain this high level of performance output. It is extremely exciting and drives the company as a single unit in one direction which is positive growth not only for Keyence but for all of our clients in disrupting their respective marketplace with our technology paving the way for innovation, providing value to their customers as well as cost savings and other intangible benefits to their respective industry as a whole.

Cons

There can initially be long working hours due to getting to grips with the technology as there is a lot to absorb at outset. It will take some time to increase your working efficiency when dealing with applications, clients, scheduling, proposals, presentation, etc. If you are very motivated and in sync with the comprehensive training provided by Keyence, you will be up and running within around 6 months. Keyence is a company for those that want to set the bar extremely high whilst increasing your earning potential by way of high performance incentives. If this is not in line with your own temperament, it may not be the company for you.

Pros

Fast paced work environment. CRM is the best I have ever had access to. Data tracking and sales insight is top notch. The regional director for TSS in Michigan/Indiana is great to work under. Leads are easily available, the product is great and it’s easy to get in the door places.

Cons

Metrics are more focused on quantity over quality. Frequently working 50+ hour weeks. Too many reps per territory and it can create a negative perception. Bonus structure vs straight commission is frusterating. Clear advancement structure however being ranked against peers with different sales targets in frusterating. Feels like a turn and burn type of mentality towards sales reps.
