Workplace reviews and discussion: 石尚自然探索屋_石尚企業股份有限公司

● You can bond with ancient corpses (fossils), and you can also make the dolls your friends.

● The interview is very simple; they mainly look at your attitude, otherwise your abilities.

● The overall department-store environment is pretty good.

● The supervisor said it suits the “lonely weirdo” type; otherwise, it’s difficult to survive within the company.

● You can meet many considerate customers.

● If you are harmless, you can get along harmoniously with everyone.

● The company is not bad; it’s just that some of the veteran employees’ behavior internally is difficult to describe.

● People who want to lose weight or develop a bloated body type are also welcome to apply. (Guaranteed to make your three daily meals irregular.)

● Strong men who want to become even stronger are also very welcome. (Guaranteed to help you build muscle by moving fossils.)

1. You’ll work overtime to death at the department-store location, and you may be notified at any time that you’re being transferred to another store. The record is 13 hours of work in one day with no time to eat, and only one person covering the entire shift.

2. The salary is NT$26,000, and commissions for selling high-priced products are not paid until two months later. You never receive KPI bonuses, yet you still have to fight desperately to meet the target every month.

3. During major and minor warehouse inventories, you’ll count until you drop dead, and many products will turn up in mysterious corners. (The inventory is done approximately once every three months.)

4. If the new store’s performance does not meet the target and the veteran employees do not like you, they may demand that you pay out of your own pocket to make the numbers look good for the boss.

5. Veteran employees like obedient people rather than people with their own opinions—the more like robots, the better. Veteran employees are all slow to warm up.

6. To save costs, the company sends employees to help at the head office, and the veteran employees will pressure and brainwash you into going. (Because you will genuinely be worked to death, your clothes will get dirty, and you’ll have to move or pack fossils.)

7. Don’t perform too well. Even if you assign customers to veteran employees or other people so they can receive bonuses, they may still maliciously defame you at head-office meetings with managers from other stores. (For example, they may falsely accuse you of stealing, poaching customers, behaving improperly at the counter, deceiving people, and so on.)

8. Veteran employees like proactive people. However, if you are enthusiastic, some veterans may dislike you and think you are superficial.

9. You have to enter saint mode when eating, because most of the time you may be so hungry that you cannot eat lunch until 4 p.m., and you won’t even know whether it counts as lunch or dinner.

10. During receiving and returns, once veteran employees see that you are getting the hang of things, they will leave everything to you. You must be able to independently complete an inventory of about 200 products in a short time while also serving customers.

11. The turnover rate is frighteningly high.

12. Some supervisors really hate and strictly prohibit employees from chatting. If a supervisor’s camera catches you, unfortunately, you and your close colleague may have difficulty being scheduled on the same day again. Even chatting with the staff at the neighboring counter can get you in trouble.

13. Veteran employees always get first priority when scheduling days off; their schedules come first. Of course, some veterans will “first” ask which days you want off. But if all the veterans want that day off, unfortunately, you have to give way yourself, or you will be scolded for “not loving the job enough,” “having a poor attitude,” and “being domineering.”

14. Even if you provide documentation for sick leave, veteran employees may still suspect that you are faking your illness. (The reason is that people in the past used this trick to take leave.)

15. Veteran employees love the cashier area most. Remember, don’t compete with them for it.

16. Some veteran employees may ask you to arrange products on the display shelves. Remember to tell the other veterans which “bird” told you to do it; otherwise, you won’t even know how you got stabbed in the back.

17. If you use your phone for more than one minute during work, the supervisor has the right to deduct money from your pay. (The work rules prohibit phone use.)

18. New employees must unconditionally stay at the store during the year-end banquet (unless a veteran employee does not want to go), and new employees are usually not eligible to participate in the raffle.

19. If something is stolen or damaged and its cost exceeds a certain amount, the employee has to pay for it personally.

20. When you resign, the supervisor will first disappear and pretend nothing is happening, then appear a few days later and genuinely pretend to be sincere, trying to persuade you to stay for anywhere from another week to a month. Remember, don’t be soft-hearted and agree to help, or you may be extremely “happy” during that period.
