A bit of freedom (because there aren't many orders)
One day, when your relatives and friends all receive year-end bonuses for the Lunar New Year, you receive nothing—or perhaps only a NT$600 red envelope.
One day, when the company fails to pay your salary on schedule and doesn't inform you, you have to figure out afterward how to come up with the money to pay your mortgage.
One day, when something happens to your parents and you need to take leave to help, your position at the company is low and you aren't valued, so you can't take leave as scheduled.
One day, when the company adjusts its salary structure, it assures you that your salary will be exactly the same as before, but afterward your salary is NT$280 less than the previous month.
One day, when the company has little to ship, you can only do environmental cleaning and tidying.
Taken together, these points will help you understand why everyone's average tenure is only one to two years.
