      Rewarding job with good potential if you are willing to put the effort in

      Anonymous employee

      Pros

      Growing company, so good opportunities if you are willing to put the effort in. Can gain skills in not only sales, but technical, marketing, recruitment, product launching and much more. If you put the hours in and get results you can progress quickly

      Cons

      Sometimes the hours can be very long, but this is the same in most sales jobs. There is a lot of pressure to achieve results but this again is probably the same in most sales jobs

      Good learning environment but poor management

      Technical sales engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You will have no better training! Plenty of time and infrastructure for training and development! Company car is a great benefit also! With lots of young professionals it is a fun and vibrant environment. Very difficult to get this again.

      Cons

      Very demanding KPI's, alot of which don't make any sense, and are not tailored per devision or customer base, this leads to many sales persons fabricating data just to keep up. Management is thr worst of both worlds, Micro management is definitely true of the Keyence management however they are no where to be found when you actually need some direction or good advice.

      Mental Health Wrecker

      Sales engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      No pros what's so ever.

      Cons

      No work live balance. Under paid, overworked. Bulling management that will do anything for a sale at the expense of employees physical and mental health.
