Mechanical Engineer:

Fresh master's graduate: A3, starting salary N (Taiwan master's degree rate)

2 years: A4, N+5

14 months guaranteed, excluding stock and year-end bonus; approximately 15–16 months annually

1. A mechanical engineering role with regular working hours

2. The benefits are fairly comprehensive (notable ones: telecommunications discounts, travel subsidy of 0.1777N, annual health checkup)

3. Overtime can genuinely be claimed, and compensatory leave is calculated at 1.5 times

4. In 2017, there were still seven days of leave

1. The pace of regular working hours is simply a little more relaxed and retirement-oriented.

Even departments that require overtime still have time to buy afternoon tea in the afternoon and eat dinner later in the evening.

2. The department's old customers have no new projects, which makes one worry about changes the following year.

3. A mechanical engineering role for those wanting to sharpen their skills may offer slow growth ((this may vary depending on the product)
