Workplace reviews and discussion: 喬山健康科技股份有限公司

You get 10 days of annual leave as soon as you join; if you have been employed for less than one year, it is prorated. This is better than what is required by the Labor Standards Act.

A family-owned company obsessed with 5S, with senior management that cannot manage and is overly sales-oriented. As long as someone can talk nonsense, sales staff can get away with anything and have an easy time.

They do all kinds of slacking off and even teach colleagues they are close to how to shirk their responsibilities. Their performance has not improved at all, yet the senior manager still favors them. Even after everyone informs her of this salesperson’s behavior, the senior manager says, “I look at the numbers.” Truly wonderful.

The senior manager cannot judge people and insists that incapable people are qualified for managerial positions, which ultimately creates a complete mess.

Job responsibilities are also unclear. Junior employees are expected to make managerial decisions—apparently, that is what proves their ability and lets them demonstrate their value. When you raise concerns, this senior manager says, “You are difficult to promote.”

She keeps talking about “the team, the team,” but allows sales staff to do nothing… truly wonderful.

The year-end bonus is stingy, and the benefits are just average, yet the senior manager still thinks she treats employees very well.

The things given to employees are always the company’s own products, but never exercise equipment—they are all organic foods.

In conclusion, if you want the company name or company scale on your résumé to be sufficiently impressive, you can still consider joining. As for this new business unit, think it over carefully. There is no harm in waiting until it is more mature before joining.

The reason I gave the overall job a poor rating is that the senior manager is the perfect embodiment of Taiwan’s capitalist employers: whatever is assigned to you, you have to do. If you do not, you are labeled “difficult to promote,” and your salary will not be increased, because she thinks everything is very, very simple.
