Workplace reviews and discussion: 地球村出版有限公司

You can make friends with many students; the teachers are very nice, and chatting with them about local culture or asking language-related questions during your free time can help you learn a lot more.

Constant pressure to meet impossible sales targets, with the required standard set higher and higher: I worked there for eight months, and the minimum target rose from 250,000 when I first joined to 400,000 by the time I left⋯⋯

Tuition fees kept increasing, and the front-desk staff were also required to promote renewals. The campaigns kept changing, and during the time I worked there, tuition fees increased at least three times.

When your performance was poor, the area supervisor would constantly pressure you to work overtime at other branches. However, those branches also needed to meet their own targets, so you would often work there for two or three hours without achieving anything. Even so, during your scheduled days off, the supervisor would say, “You have no sales results, so how dare you take a day off? Hurry up and go work overtime at another branch.”

On the day the area supervisor visited a branch, you had to show up even if you were scheduled to be off. (You were expected to attend even when sick, and there was no overtime pay.) You had to stay until the supervisor left. Front-desk staff on the morning shift often could not leave work until seven or eight at night.

There are many other issues as well. The people who posted earlier have already explained them, and they are all true, so I will not say more.

In short, there are many unreasonable things about this company. I strongly recommend that you d·o·n’t· c·o·m·e.
