Workplace reviews and discussion: 台灣谷嘉美有限公司

I went for an interview about a month ago. The company is in a very prestigious location, in a financial building on the Ren'ai traffic circle. The office itself is very simple, with little decoration—just simple glass partitions and open-plan desks. A mountain of snacks.

The company is very small, with only one meeting room and around 20 employees.

The interview process has about two to three rounds. First, relevant colleagues and HR conduct the interview together, followed by interviews with the owner and the direct supervisor. I heard there may also be a video interview with the overseas headquarters. English and Japanese, as well as work-related questions, may be tested.

The owner seems to have ideas and really wants to make the company bigger. They kept saying they wanted teamwork, initiative, and team cohesion.

Everyone looks fairly young, and the atmosphere is pretty good. As for what it is like to work there, I’ll come back and share once I get the job.

I haven’t joined yet, so I don’t know the drawbacks. However, I heard the company does not provide parking spaces, so you have to take the MRT.

The interview process has to go through the overseas headquarters, so it takes relatively longer.

The salary is not particularly high—probably around the average.

Seeing that there were so many negative reviews before, I think it might be an issue of the new management team adjusting to the longtime employees. There’s probably no way to resolve that.
