Workplace reviews and discussion: 奧圖斯科技有限公司

1. Free capsule coffee machine

2. Occasional free afternoon tea

3. I have never worked overtime

4. The office is close to an MRT station

1. The boss can turn 1% of something into 100%! For example: I once accompanied the boss to a meeting with a vendor. The meeting clearly achieved nothing, but after returning to the office, the boss shamelessly told the other colleagues that the partnership had been successfully negotiated.

2. The boss is extremely unrealistic and all talk, no action. He has a whole laundry list of ideals (one moment he wants to break into the food industry, the next he wants to develop tech products; whatever he sees featured in Business Weekly, he wants to pursue), yet he never does his homework. If an employee raises practical problems that may arise during implementation, he will accuse them of throwing the problem back at him...... If you try to discuss plans in advance, he will only say that these are all matters for later and is completely unable to offer any suggestions...

3. The boss always believes that knowing so-and-so means he can close a particular deal (apparently because he previously managed to land a few deals through introductions, so he thinks he can keep copying this model), but the failure rate is extremely high, because a lot of the time he is merely trying to leverage personal connections XD

4. The boss desperately needs employees to applaud him and tell him how great he is (I am being serious). When he sings in the office, he will grumble for a long time if you do not listen to him sing. When he tells jokes he thinks are funny, he will be hurt if you do not laugh. One of the annual performance review criteria is called "obedience"...

5. The boss requires everything, no matter how big or small, to be reported verbally. He believes this is more efficient and allows for interaction. But something that could be explained in three minutes often turns into half an hour to an hour of rambling, with hardly any conclusion, so you have no idea why it was necessary to spend so much time discussing it with him. Also, something discussed today may be forgotten by tomorrow, and he will ask you again about the same question he asked yesterday. If you think this is inefficient and want to report something to him by email, document, or messaging app, sorry, but there is an over-80% chance he will skip it entirely (and he is unable to read long texts).

6. Even though the boss himself is such an unprofessional person, he keeps telling employees to wear lipstick to look professional......

7. To sum up, I really do not know what skills I can improve here.
