Workplace reviews and discussion: 國賓大飯店股份有限公司

1. The only positive is that the colleagues are easy to get along with

2. There is an employee cafeteria where you can eat

Position: Assistant Manager in a certain unit (the title used by this company)

1. During the interview, they made the job sound fantastic, but after actually joining, it was very different from what was described. Once I started, it was basically like doing odd jobs

2. The division of work between departments is unclear. Things belonging to certain departments are often dumped on us, and they order us around, making it seem as if this position belongs to their department

3. Departments scheme against one another, and there is even vicious infighting within departments. They appear harmonious on the surface but engage in open and covert struggles behind the scenes. Most colleagues even pretend not to see one another when they meet on the way. That is simply the way people interact here, and it feels extremely unpleasant

4. Most senior managers are relatives or associates of influential people. As long as you say flattering things and praise these people highly, even those without ability can still rise through the ranks rapidly

5. They are extremely impatient with newcomers. When you ask questions, many people become impatient or simply say they do not know. Colleagues only want to do what is within their own responsibilities; regarding other people's tasks, they act as if they do not know because those tasks are not theirs

6. The manager of one's own department does not stand up for the people in the department, lacks backbone, and is often unaware of the situation

7. Managers from other departments can question employees from other departments directly without first reporting to or asking that department's manager about the employee's situation, leaving employees rather confused

Overall, it looks like a well-established, systematic old company, but in reality it is not. After joining, I discovered that the entire system is controlled by bureaucracy. As the saying goes, “If you have connections, nothing is a problem.” Those who are pushed out either have no connections or refuse to comply with these relatives and associates of influential people. Human resources is the company's biggest and most fundamental problem, but management cannot see it; they only think about how to make money
