Regeneration Network (Regeneration Mending the Net)
My personal experience:
The food is basically very good. The company provides meal subsidies, the promotion system is clear, and evaluations are conducted every three months. Colleagues are friendly and look out for one another, and the company provides dormitories.
My personal experience:
The boss is the spiritual leader of the company; the boss is essentially everything. Although he says he does not interfere in company personnel matters, in reality, many things are decided by him. His words also often contain chauvinism. He is very emotional and does not like employees associating privately.
I was dismissed because I did not honestly disclose that I was living with a colleague I was dating. The company considered me dishonest.
Originally, for convenience, I moved into the company dormitory. Later, I applied to move out, citing “going home to accompany my family.” During the process, my supervisor kept asking whether something had happened at home. Because I was worried that my supervisor might overthink it, I repeatedly said that I simply wanted to go home. In fact, I did go home every day that month, and it was not until the week before I was dismissed that I started living outside with my colleague (girlfriend).
One day, the boss and department supervisor called me into the lounge and asked me:
“Who exactly are you living with? How could you possibly be going home every day?”
Because I felt there was no need to report my private affairs, I did not say. Later, my girlfriend was also called into the lounge for questioning. After questioning us separately, the company decided that I had been dishonest and dismissed me that same day. My girlfriend also found the interrogation process extremely uncomfortable and left voluntarily that day.
After my dismissal, I received a certificate of involuntary separation (I was dismissed on the grounds of being unsuitable for the position) and severance pay.
Additional note: Later, colleagues from other departments told me that after I left, the boss gathered everyone and said that my girlfriend and I had been having an ambiguous relationship (I am also a woman). However, I do not know what the actual situation was. My girlfriend’s parents also said that, before dismissing me, the boss called them to say that he was going to fire me (???). I do not know whether he was trying to report me to them. The whole thing made me feel as if I had gone back to my school days, when there were school disciplinarians.
Additional note: In fact, the employees have very good relationships with one another and occasionally arrange outings after work. I was probably invited two or three times, but we simply had to avoid being discovered by management or the boss. It was inexplicable, but at this company everyone followed this kind of rule.
Before all of this happened, the boss and supervisor took very good care of me. All I can say is that this is an extremely subjective company.
