Pros

1) Develop a good work ethic which will be recognised when you leave, as being worked into the ground becomes the norm at Keyence. 2) Good learning on how not to conduct business.

Cons

1) Low salary compared to market average. 2) Brainwashing by management. 3) Meaningless promotions to keep employees excited. 4) Long hours. 5) Keyence customers are are not happy customers due to being constantly hounded for orders by stressed employees trying to reach target. 6) Shockingly the management are asking their 'senior' employees to write 'good' reviews on Glassdoor.
