Workplace reviews and discussion: 雲川科技有限公司

When I first joined, it was a startup, so I was able to learn quite a lot. The colleagues were easy to get along with.

To be honest, I really wanted to believe in this company, but the harsh realities of society don't allow you to be naive.

After September 2018, this company had almost no orders, and quite a few of the finished products shipped previously were rejected and returned by customers.

In mid-2018, the office and sales teams were replaced with new staff, not counting those who had already been fired or had left.

The turnover rate was quite high.

After September 2018, the work was almost entirely repetitive, consisting of products with data discrepancies or specification issues from before.

There were also quite a few products whose specifications and data were completely unknown, so they had to be individually inspected.

Although experiments and improvements were carried out continuously, the procedures had not yet been properly implemented. Things at work were often changed back and forth: A said it was acceptable, while B said it was not.

In the end, even I wasn't sure which plan I was supposed to implement.

The order volume had begun to pick up again by the end of 2018, but the company ordered all employees to schedule leave.

It was only after returning from leave that we found out we had been laid off. This was really quite a move.

At the beginning of 2019, the company decided to downsize and planned to set up a factory in China. We were among the first affected. A small number of employees who were not laid off remained to handle the downsizing period and machine deliveries.

I think I had more or less seen the signs by the middle or latter half of last year, but I still believed in the company until I was laid off. Ha.

I don't know what management was really thinking, or whether the reason for the downsizing was the China–United States trade war or a failed business expansion plan. I have no idea.

Anyway, it was the expected unexpected. Everything was very inexplicable.

All right. Let's all.
