None.

Ten and a half working hours per day, eight and a half hours on Sundays, with seven days off per month. Overtime is routine, as are violations of the Labor Standards Act.

The pay does not necessarily match the agreed-upon base salary; employees may be paid less than the base salary under the pretext of "insufficient performance."

The hourly wage is slightly below the minimum wage, right on the borderline of legality, and there is "absolutely no overtime pay" for working more than eight hours a day.

Throughout the year, apart from annual leave, there are no holidays at all. Even during periods of annual leave, consecutive days off are taken from the employee's own leave, seriously affecting employees' right to arrange their days off.

Even veteran employees with more than ten years of service do not receive the legally mandated annual leave. Not a single person in the entire company has annual leave, which is utterly outrageous.

Sick leave is deducted at more than half a day's pay, while the deduction for being late is far greater than the actual proportion of time missed—showing complete disregard for the Labor Standards Act.

The interviewers and work supervisors have no exchange of information whatsoever. They do not even clearly understand whether applicants are full-time employees or part-time workers, or what their working hours are. There is no organization at all.

The actual duties do not match the job description: employees are expected to handle sales, inventory preparation, image editing, customer service, account reconciliation, and various other miscellaneous tasks. None of this was mentioned during the interview.

Breaks consist of 40 minutes at noon and 40 minutes in the evening, and employees are not allowed to eat outside; they must buy food and bring it back to the company. Even after finishing their meals early, they are not allowed to lie on their desks and rest briefly. By the afternoon and into the evening, most employees are mentally exhausted and inefficient. For a job involving ten and a half hours of work, not allowing any lunch break is truly inhumane. This situation has persisted for more than ten years, with no improvement from the management department. Given that employees' freedom to use their break time is restricted, whether this can truly be called break time is highly questionable.

Employees are treated entirely like machines. I have heard that many people at the supervisory level have repeatedly raised related issues, but ultimately nothing came of them. As a long-established store that has operated in the Guanghua commercial district for many years, it is astonishing that its internal rules are so illogical.

Those with unwavering determination and a willingness to endure hardship will certainly be able to handle this job! Applicants who do not mind having their health ruined after working here for two or three years are preferred.
