Used to be good
|
|
Great culture and people. Some of the best people I've ever worked with. Very smart, hard-working and fun.
|
Leadership for the last several years has been terrible with lots of major changes, many of which do NOT make sense. Seems to be run by finance recently. Going away from what made them great and moving to be like their biggest competitor, which I'd argue is an epic mistake.

Go back to being proud of the company we are and stop trying to only manage based on margins. When you let go of several 10-20 year employees during Covid & again the following year, during our 2 best sales quarters ever, you completely changed the feel of the company. You preach loyalty BUT you don't practice it. Cutting good folks because finance thinks they are paid too much is ridiculous. Those employees got to their pay rate for good reason- they delivered results and were loyal. Now you want to punish them for that!

Territory Sales Engineer

Unattainable quotas and commission performance metrics
|
|
Great Products. Best in the Machine Vision Industry (2d). Best Barcode Scanning products in industry.
|
The Territory sales organization that Cognex created in 2022 to try and win market share with the bottom 50% of the market (smaller business) was (and is) aggressively rushed without data behind it to make financial and hiring decisions.
Huge amounts of college graduates onboarded with an expectation they could meet their quotas.
Commission plans were not disclosed until 5 weeks into Q1, and the quotas were staggeringly high compared to the previous year's bookings data (2.5x quota growth in territories that have been established for 15 years).
And then they were retracted because the numbers listed on them were "incorrect." They were re-released with 5 weeks left in Q1 with even higher attainment numbers, with a heavy focus on "performance metrics" (absurd number for quantity of meetings attained, which just results in garbage meetings to hit the number rather than a focus on quality).
How does a sales org not have a commission plan for its members laid out with 5 weeks left until they are to be graded on said performance?
Frankly, it seems like some promises were made at the board of executives level that this new sales org was going to produce much more revenue than it actually is, and the top level execs are scrambling to squeeze something out of it by setting unattainable quotas.
I would not be surprised if less than 5% of the org makes quota, and that sets a horrible expectation for its future success.
Cognex was not like this even 2 years ago. It will be interesting to see the next few years. I really hope improvements can be made because Cognex has a great history and reputation and they need to preserve that.

Do what Cognex does best. Be creative, don't copy your competitors sales model. Hire quality engineers with the full portfolio understanding that can support customers better than our competitor to win long-term business.
