I’m still working at the company for now, but I’m preparing to switch jobs after the Lunar New Year.
First of all, the company only provides new hires with 50 in fuel allowance per day.
New hires are assigned to support runs, and if you’re given around 80 packages a day, you’ll have already spent over 100 on fuel by the time you finish.
Also, the monthly motorcycle subsidy is less than 2,000.
Two 600 bottles of engine oil for the vehicle leave you with almost nothing.
During the interview, they’ll tell you that you’ll receive a certain amount based on how many packages you deliver each month.
P.S. One very important point: the guaranteed base salary only applies to the “first month.”
But in the second month, there’s no guarantee that you’ll be assigned an area to cover.
In other words, if you’re still doing support runs in your second month and don’t deliver many packages, you’re screwed.
When doing support runs:
1. If you’re unfamiliar with the routes, you definitely won’t deliver many packages.
2. Senior employees also need packages, so you definitely won’t be assigned many.
3. You might finish running deliveries in area A in the morning, only to be told to go run deliveries in area B in the afternoon.
You’re burning your own fuel the whole time, and the company doesn’t reimburse you.
So, even if you work your hardest, you’ll only make a little over 26,000 in your first month.
(Unless you can handle 3,000 packages right after joining—but I’ve never seen anyone manage that many as a new hire.)
So don’t get your hopes up too much about those package-count bonuses; they’re only possible after you’re assigned your own area.
During the Lunar New Year period, the company is unlikely to provide a vehicle. To use a company delivery van, you have to borrow one from a senior employee,
or consider buying a vehicle specifically for company deliveries yourself.
That’s right—you have to buy one yourself and pay for it in installments (and the company will later take it back from you).
As for the scooters, even if the oldest ones are slowing down your work, you still have to put up with them and resign yourself to using them. As a new hire, you’re expected to use the worst ones.
Some people even work for nearly half a month before they might receive a scooter.
As for phone service, the company only provides a phone card with a monthly limit of 300.
If you use it sparingly, it’s usually enough, but you have to provide your own phone.
Besides knowing the routes and having the tools provided by the company, new hires have to pay for and prepare all other work equipment themselves. That’s how stingy the company is.
The uniform distribution is fairly decent, at least they aren’t so stingy that they refuse to provide uniforms.
But how long it takes to receive one depends entirely on the efficiency of the people in charge.
If they’re efficient, you’ll get one soon after joining.
If they’re not...they’ll just give you something temporary to wear.
The proper one will probably appear after you’ve been working for one or two months.
Also, the Lunar New Year holiday leave is shorter than what other people get.
So decide for yourself whether it’s worth it.
