Workplace reviews and discussion: 祥儀企業股份有限公司

When the boss gives bonuses, they really give money—not gift vouchers or some other inexplicable thing. The salary is poor, but the benefits and bonuses are quite good “for a traditional industry company.” The office building is relatively spacious and bright.

The manager of the robotics division has absolutely no direction in his work and completely lacks management skills. He does not care about rules or procedures; everything is governed by personal discretion. The supervisor has absolutely no guts: even when staffing is insufficient, he agrees with whatever the boss says, then turns around and exploits his subordinates. However, he never advocates for them. All bonuses and benefits are given based on whether the general manager or boss is in a good or bad mood, rather than being secured through the supervisor’s efforts (although he will claim that he fought for them). The department’s bad apples are never (dare to be) dealt with; the supervisor lets them run around causing trouble and bullying others. He only trusts certain flattering, obsequious people: whatever these people say about their colleagues, he believes wholesale. He does not normally care about his subordinates, and if he takes a dislike to you, he will use a work-interview form to pressure you into leaving. He is even afraid that the bad apples will become angry or upset and resign, so he shifts responsibility for mistakes onto other people. Punishments are only directed at those who usually work quietly and are not close to him; even if people close to him are incompetent, they still receive very high performance ratings. Another person, a planner who is supposedly a junior supervisor and originally worked as a graphic designer, has no marketing or planning ability at all but insists on doing planning work (and does not even understand what planning means, while constantly saying that he wants to be a planner). His work is inefficient and often delays event schedules. When something goes wrong, he shifts the blame to his subordinates and disappears. He is extremely emotional and often makes loud outbursts in the office. Anyone more capable than him becomes a thorn in his side and is repeatedly sabotaged. He often says, “You’ve overstepped your authority, haven’t you?” and obstructs your work. He is highly demanding of other people’s “respect.” I recommend thinking twice before joining this company, at least until these two “supervisors” have left.
