Every department has a whole bunch of associate vice presidents and vice presidents who have nothing better to do all day than nitpick work progress. They also find meaningless tasks for everyone to do. Even non-sales back-office staff have to check the company’s LINE after work; if they don’t deal with something promptly, they’ll be chewed out the next day. A bunch of people who got in through connections can slack off without having to worry, while those without connections are criticized all day long. When the company’s performance is poor and revenue declines, they blame frontline employees for not putting enough effort into their work and not caring about the company, along with all sorts of other excuses. Normally, you have no idea why the company employs so many associate vice presidents and vice presidents. Being one minute late to work results in a pay deduction, but there’s no perfect-attendance bonus for arriving on time. There are no bonuses for the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, or Lunar New Year; instead, they give you a bunch of unsold, dead-stock products and then make you pay the taxes on them for the company.

All of the above are advantages.
