1. Convenient transportation.
2. Lots of places to eat nearby.
3. They provide you with a company phone, so you don’t have to add customers on LINE or use other contact methods.
4. The colleagues are very nice.
1. There are a lot of things, and it is very cluttered. There are even things piled up in the restroom, but the boss said they would move to a larger place later, so it should improve.
2. There is a rice cooker and a refrigerator in the office, provided that you dare to use them, because they are not very clean.
3. The workload may continue to increase.
4. The supervisor sometimes adds tasks at the last minute after working hours.
5. There is no overtime pay. During the interview, they said there would be compensatory time off, but that only applies to Saturdays. On weekdays, there is neither compensatory time off nor overtime pay. (According to the staff, this is because the boss discourages overtime, so overtime only counts after 8 p.m. [laughs].)
6. What was said during the interview is different from the reality. They said they would provide training, but in practice they do not. You have to search online or figure things out yourself. Therefore, if your actual duties differ from what you applied for or include additional tasks, you will have to look up how to do them yourself online.
Regarding the work:
1. There is a clock-in system, but the boss does not seem to pay much attention to it. Sometimes employees work overtime until very late, and employees may also arrive a few minutes late (with the boss’s permission).
2. Sometimes you need to go to other locations to set up for marketing events, but the boss will drive you there, so there is no need to worry—as long as you arrive early.
3. There is no designated break or mealtime. Take a break when you want to, and go out to buy something to eat when you want to.
The above is subjective; whether these are advantages or disadvantages is up to you.
I resigned immediately after discovering the problems, but when I later asked the boss for the wages I had earned, payment was delayed. The boss also asked me for a photo of my bankbook, even though I had already provided a copy of it before resigning. The boss also made it sound reassuring by saying the money would be transferred, but still delayed the payment. In retrospect, it seems I was deceived. If I had not asked for it, I probably would not have been paid.
