Workplace reviews and discussion: 無雙界股份有限公司

I state here that the following are all personal subjective opinions. The fact that something is unsuitable for me does not mean it is unsuitable for everyone, and I also believe this company is not the most outrageous unscrupulous employer. For each point below, I will only give one example for now. If you have concerns, please decide for yourself whether to experience it firsthand.

1. Leaving work on time

(Even when progress is completely behind schedule)

2. Drinks are provided from time to time

(If the boss happens to want a drink, they will buy one for you as well)

3. The boss has a laissez-faire personality

(Very suitable for employees with lower self-expectations: as long as the task is completed, you do not need to care about quality to receive payment)

4. A wide variety of projects

(No matter what unwanted bids are available, the boss is interested in taking them. As long as you can muddle through by whatever means and make money, that is all that matters)

1. The boss does not understand the Labor Standards Act

(Not intentionally violating the law, but after establishing the company, the boss seems never to have seriously learned about the Labor Standards Act. When laying off employees, they said they had never issued the necessary certificate and were very busy, and hoped the employees would handle it themselves, etc.)

2. Misrepresenting unfavorable information

(Inflating the number of employees to help obtain bids; telling new employees that departing employees had merely switched to part-time work, etc.)

3. Low pay for heavy workloads

(You initially enter under the title of assistant, then are given a high-ranking title. The original reason is that it looks better when conducting meetings outside the office, which I agree with; but afterward, you are required to take on the responsibilities of the lofty title. Bonuses depend on the boss’s mood, and receiving a few thousand more means you are expected to be grateful.)

4. The boss’s professionalism is questionable

(The boss initially said that the company had a professional technician—namely, the boss themself—responsible for technical work, while the assistant was only responsible for clerical tasks. The boss’s proudest skill is Googling. When there were only two people in the company, all necessary resources had to be found through Google, and as a result, nearly all the output was essentially copied from others. Also, when the boss and I worked separately on deliverables, even though what they submitted was less substantial than mine and contained more errors…)

5. Constantly suspecting employees of slacking off

(One person has to complete the workload that would normally require an entire team, yet the boss constantly suspects employees of slacking off. As a result, when working in the office space of the boss’s relatives, I did not dare say anything at all, for fear of being caught and having the accusation of slacking off confirmed.)

6. Poor communication skills

(Whether it concerns salaries, bonuses, work, or anything else involving employees, the boss never discusses it with you. This causes both sides to move in completely different directions. The boss unilaterally believes they are treating employees well and never asks what employees want.)

7. An unusual vision for employees’ futures

(The boss “trains” employees as reserve managers, but only explains this after employees point out that the duties do not match what was discussed in the interview. The goal is to train employees to independently complete bids and make money for the company. However, this company has no technology, background, financial resources, or connections. If I personally had the ability to work independently in this way, I would have no intention of working for this company and making wedding clothes for someone else.)

*Most of these shortcomings would be acceptable if they were honestly disclosed to the other party from the beginning and both sides agreed to them; that would be better than creating labor disputes through one-sided assumptions. Personally, I strongly dislike this way of deceiving people to win bids, wasting taxpayers’ money, deceiving employees, and wasting their youth.
