As a new company, you can experience many processes from the ground up. Since it is still a new company, newcomers are also given a relatively high degree of authority.
The relationships among colleagues are fairly good, and the company holds gatherings every month to give everyone opportunities to build closer relationships.
There are Japanese employees at the company, which is a good opportunity for those who want to practice spoken Japanese. (An N2 level or above is recommended.)
Compared with the advantages mentioned above, the company's disadvantages are also related to its strengths.
First, although the company gives newcomers a great deal of autonomy and authority, it does not provide adequate oversight for that autonomy. The quality of contracts varies considerably, yet the company does not hire legal staff or retain legal counsel for this purpose.
Second, regarding salary, Yaxingtong is positioned more like an advertising agency, so the pay is not particularly high to begin with. However, unlike other advertising agencies, Yaxingtong's salary "already includes 40 hours of overtime pay each month." In fact, some employees have already experienced excessive overtime, resulting in an hourly wage of less than NT$100 when calculated accordingly.
Third, although the company has a reward system for "improvement proposals," many of the proposals it adopts are neither formally specified nor implemented in concrete terms. Most proposals are assessed as "held for further consideration."
