1. The pace of work is moderate. 2. Overtime is paid in accordance with the Labor Standards Act. 3. Most employees work normal hours.
1. The company's colleagues do not respect professional skills and only care about seniority based on when people joined the company. Regardless of whether you are a graphic designer, marketer, editor, or an engineer with one year of experience, anyone can arbitrarily assign tasks to you. Their attitude and tone are very poor, and they constantly urge you about your progress. Even though they are not supervisors, everyone acts like a supervisor—condescending and bossy. It is obvious that long-time employees bully newcomers and like to assert their authority over new employees.
2. Engineers have very low status in the company. Other colleagues lack professional abilities, yet they can arbitrarily dictate your work schedule, duties, and working hours—a clear case of nonexperts leading experts.
3. During the interview, they spent three hours discussing how I would work on an XX system. However, after I joined, work was assigned randomly, and I ended up doing odd jobs.
4. There are many women in the company who like to bully others, mostly through their words and actions. You may be inexplicably scolded, and people are very disrespectful, often casually calling out, “Hey, you, the new person.”
5. The codebase is very messy, and development is not managed according to any schedule. Although the supervisor can sometimes be reasoned with, if you make him unhappy, sarcastic remarks and personal attacks are unavoidable.
6. Be careful not to offend the supervisor. If you offend the “abbot” and then try to leave or change companies, he will find people in the industry to deal with you.
