You can hone your skills, and you’ll adapt very well to any job that comes next.
If you thought the company benefits looked good, almost all of them are fake.
This small company has the highest turnover rate I’ve ever seen. It would be amazing to stay for three full months. The boss simply doesn’t value employees. Even when there’s nothing to do, if he wants you to stay and do some insignificant tasks, you’re obligated to—and there’s absolutely no overtime pay. He doesn’t even have a clock-in system. He says it’s to give everyone more freedom and convenience, but if you arrive even one minute late, you’ll be reprimanded. He even requires everyone to end their lunch break ten minutes early, claiming that this will allow them to rest for ten minutes in the afternoon, but in reality, he has no intention of letting you rest. He nitpicks over ten minutes of lunch break, yet never mentions all the time he forces people to stay without paying overtime.
Before joining this company, I always thought it was perfectly reasonable to do your own work, keep up with the schedule, and take a short break at an appropriate time.
It really opened my eyes: this was the first company I’d encountered that didn’t allow even a minute or second of rest, and during working hours, you’re absolutely not allowed to reply to messages or answer phone calls—even if a family member has an emergency, you can’t even take a glance.
He thinks he pays very high salaries. You might think the pay is pretty good at first too, but consider that it includes the unpaid overtime—when you calculate it, it’s not much at all.
By the way, he also requires everyone to use two days of annual leave around the period before and after the Lunar New Year, because he doesn’t intend to work on those two days. What about your other annual leave? You have the right to request leave, but he has the right to reject it. He can say that those dates happen to be unavailable, or suddenly tell you that you can’t take leave the week before a vacation you’ve already planned.
