      Pros

      Good Products Every company you work for after will seem like a dream

      Cons

      Intense micromanagement Expect quick burnout (You will hate your job and life within 6 months) Beyond initial training, there is zero employee development Keyence is not well known in the united states, so expect to do a lot of your own product marketing in your territory Management does not trust employees whatsoever and you will always feel like big brother is watching you (and they will be)

      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.
