Workplace reviews and discussion: 網路中文資訊股份有限公司

1. Flexible working hours; there is no need to clock in, only to sign in yourself (so some people sign in for several days at once).

2. You receive severance pay if you are laid off, and it is easy to get laid off. People who want to claim unemployment benefits for a short period may want to consider this.

3. The office has been renovated.

4. Slacking off, doing nothing, and putting on airs will not be noticed.

5. Unlimited free secondhand smoke.

6. A place where beginners can keep quiet and grind experience.

1. A supervisor in one department really likes to say, “I’m a very good supervisor,”

but whether someone is a good supervisor should be judged by other people....

2. Basically, this company likes to hire fresh graduates or people without experience, but the supervisors lack knowledge in their professional fields,

which leaves new hires like headless flies (but as long as you keep yourself blindly busy like the supervisor, you can survive).

The supervisor of one particular department especially likes the feeling of training newcomers (but rather than training you, it is more like leaving you to fend for yourself and then showing up later to talk nonsense).

They like inexperienced newcomers to come in and teach themselves (not very successfully), then use the tone of someone who thinks they are a good supervisor to claim that they trained them.

If you cannot produce something to bluff the boss during the period when they feel good about themselves, you will be laid off or thrown into another department.

3. People come and go in every department; staying for six months to a year can already be considered quite a long time.

4. There is not much motivation to work. Supervisors only want to produce some bullshit to give the boss, making the boss feel that the department is doing something. The quality of what gets produced is secondary (or perhaps the boss simply wants something that can bluff the world). Basically, it is like being a civil servant and just getting through each day.

5. When you resign, the person handling accounting and HR will say, “I’ll E-MAIL the resignation documents to you.” Basically, this is all bullshit, so you should request and collect all the documents before you leave.

6. The supervisor of one department only relays the boss’s ideas to the people in the department without thinking them through. Although the position is called “manager,” it is essentially false advertising; procedures, implementation, and time allocation are all a complete mess. They only know how to talk nonsense.

7. If you encounter a problem, the supervisor will not think about helping you solve it; as long as something is produced somehow, that is enough. If you want to propose an idea or discuss difficulties with other colleagues, the supervisor will only think that you are causing vicious infighting within the department (黑人問號.jpg). Therefore, apart from the supervisor chatting within the department, there is no other conversation.

8. The supervisor of one department goes to salary websites to check whether people who have been laid off or resigned have posted reviews. You could say they have a guilty conscience... (the supervisor’s inner monologue:

“They won’t be able to find a supervisor as good as me after they leave; other companies out there are even more dangerous....” and other thoughts used to comfort themselves.) But rest assured, we are all doing very well outside.

9. The company has been established for more than ten years, yet it still does not have a complete system. The only thing that is complete is the bullshit KPI system.

10. The supervisor of one department says one thing to one person and another thing to another. In other departments, they portray themselves as Mazu descending into the mortal world to save ignorant commoners, but within the department they are someone whose word means nothing and who has no backbone. Every day they play taiji and practice white terror; if differing opinions or anything else displeases them... they immediately stage a harem-style power struggle and lay you off (not having to resign in anger yourself should probably count as one of the benefits).

Summary: Don’t make the head of the technical department unhappy.
