Business outlook
Pros
Pros are the people you work with on a daily basis. The products are good as well. The pay is good coming right out of college, but can stagnate
Cons
Keyence is a machine. All the company cares about is numbers, and that is what you are. Promotion heavily depends on what area/product line you were assigned. The Sensors product line has over 300 sales reps, meaning there is heavy competition for about 15 promotions. Whereas the Machine Vision line has a lot less people therefore a lot more room for growth. Nothing managers/directors can do to help you get promoted. All based on metrics. No such thing as a work life balance if you want to succeed. Very little diversity here at keyence as well. Office was 90 percent caucasian
