1. There is an employee meal subsidy of approximately NT$660 per month, and dinner is free.

2. There is a travel subsidy that is added directly to the monthly salary in a certain month.

3. Underground parking spaces are available.

4. Group insurance is provided.

1. There is a “serious discrepancy” between the annual salary discussed during the interview and what you actually receive. They discuss an annual salary with you, cut your monthly salary, and later say that, according to company policy, you are not eligible for a bonus.

2. During the first three months’ probationary period, NT$3,000 is deducted. They only tell you this one week before you join the company, saying it will be made up with a bonus. However, as mentioned in the first point, you will not actually receive it—and in reality, it was deducted for four months because the process was still being completed.

3. There is a severe culture of pretending to work overtime, with everyone competing to leave work later. People go to the smoking area or sit at their desks scrolling on their phones, simply to stay several extra hours before clocking out.

4. After work, supervisors still message you on LINE to handle work matters. A few times, I even had to ride back to the company.

5. Colleagues who are good at flattering the supervisor basically have an easy time, chatting and laughing every day. Otherwise, the supervisor probably will not come talk to you until you say you are resigning, hoping to make you stay and continue being exploited.
