Workplace reviews and discussion: 凱笛資訊股份有限公司

1. The restroom is very large, clean, and offers a high degree of privacy.

2. The environment has been newly renovated, so it isn’t old and dirty.

3. More than half of the company’s employees have left, so there is plenty of space and it isn’t crowded.

1. Leaving work on time will make people think you have too much free time~ If no one stops you to ask for help when you’re about to leave the company, it means the “company doesn’t need you.” Employees are held to unrealistic expectations, with the belief that everyone should have the mindset of apprentices under the old “master-apprentice system”: even when their workload increases, they should be grateful for the opportunity to learn!

2. Managers apply double standards: they are strict with others but lenient with themselves. When assigning tasks, they never consider the employee’s existing workload or how difficult the task is to carry out, and they often question why it is taking so long. But when it comes to their own work, no one dares say anything even when they delay progress.

3. They ignore the work allocation and progress coordinated among employees. If they suddenly decide they want something done, they order employees to rush it out immediately. If the original work is delayed as a result, they will then snap at you for being too slow!

4. The boss has many unrealistic ideas and believes that anything can be accomplished just by Googling it and imitating what others have done. Professional matters are not entrusted to professionals; instead, employees are told to “look up the information,” as though the whole thing will then succeed and make a lot of money. As a result, besides their regular duties, employees also have to deal with these sudden impossible assignments.

5. There are also many issues involving managers’ personal moods and double standards. For example, when they are in a good mood or need something from you, they greet you with a smile and speak softly; when they are in a bad mood, they make sarcastic remarks and look extremely sour. Or they may suddenly dump work they cannot finish onto you, then, if they happen to think of it later, ask why you still haven’t finished it (regardless of whether there was enough time), and berate you for needing to pay attention to the schedule. Meanwhile, even when they have accumulated a great deal of work themselves and are affecting business progress, they leisurely do irrelevant things, such as changing the toner in a newly purchased photocopier (when there is nothing to print), browsing online shopping sites, watching music videos by Korean groups, suddenly deciding to organize files, and so on.

There’s still so much more that I could go on about. Anyone with an adventurous, go-getter attitude is welcome to come experience it for themselves.
