Working at Kyocera in Concord, CA: 3 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Concord, CA Area

"While this is a US branch, the company is extremely Japanese. Japanese employees will be promoted over American ones. Americans will be dismissed, and ignored for the most part by those at the corporate headquarters. Not LBG friendly, and rather high sexism, and agism (on both sides). Some development teams are untrained in the basics, and outsource more than they build. The only good dev team is their mobile one, but it is bogged down by the other teams, and an unskilled marketing department."

"Great team, a lot of flexibility and responsibility for team leads and engineers"

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

"Interviews are with working managers, so be honest and avoid marketing or HR speak."

What don't you like about working at Kyocera?

"Lines of communication can be very long. We have development offices in Japan, the Philippines, the Ukraine, and China."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Let people work their jobs and don't try to do every job in house."
