None

The supervisor's mood swings are extreme, and they speak to subordinates as if calling for maids or laborers. Veteran employees bully newcomers. Every day, they keep messaging on LINE and demand an immediate response—even at noon, on holidays, or in the middle of the night. The working hours are long. Every so often, the supervisor pesters people past the end of the workday, and there are even occasions when work is assigned at 6:30 with the expectation that it must be finished immediately! The department's work is completely unplanned, with frequent last-minute meetings and business trips. Scheduled meetings are always delayed by more than an hour. I thought this kind of unpunctuality only happened in Africa. They do not treat other people's time as time. Project plans are never on the schedule, but the supervisor has no sense of responsibility whatsoever; whenever another department gives an order, everything must be carried out on time. So delays earlier in the process do not matter—just force people in our own department to compress the timeline and work themselves to death. The supervisor's salary is astonishing, while an ordinary specialist earns only 25K. The year-end bonus is one month. Employees have to pay travel and accommodation expenses upfront themselves, and overtime can only be converted into compensatory leave. Even after working overtime the previous day, employees are still required to report to work normally at 9 a.m. the next day. Joining this company will only gradually wear away your love for the brand. In one word: awful.
