Kikusui USA Employee Job Reviews in the United States

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Beware of territory and existing accounts and potential prospects...don't use 10 year old or even 5 year old market research benchmark information as the changes in the last 3 years are dramatic..."

What don't you like about working at Kikusui USA?

"did not undertand changing market dynamics and the ongoing market shrinkage due to mergers, acquisitions, off shoring and especially out sourcing. We had very expensive equipment for the high end accounts such as Pfizer, BMS, Wyeth, Novartis and most of these blue chip accounts were closing manufacturing sites...more capacity than production leaves a market with more equipment than is needed; not just because of economic conditions but this would be the future and KikusuI was not adjusting to these events."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"A lesser expensive product, perhaps could not be mfg in Japan for the contract manufacturing sector that was growing but did not wantto pay top dollars for such machines.Needed better marketing, i.e website, direct mail, digital media etc...Customers were closing doors for good, all competitors fighting for market share...they needed to diversify their product portfolio...i.e. not just single product line."
