1. Layoffs

--- At least four employees, both senior and junior, were laid off before the Lunar New Year on the grounds of being unsuitable for their positions.

--- Employees were laid off on the afternoon of the company year-end banquet.

--- An employee was laid off after only three days on the job, without even having met anyone from management.

2. Business trips

--- The daily business-trip allowance is US$15, which is not even enough to cover meals.....

--- No additional pay is provided for working on Saturdays.

--- No overtime pay. Only after 15 consecutive days on a business trip can you exchange them for one compensatory day off; otherwise, none is provided.

--- Employees’ return-to-Taiwan dates may be changed arbitrarily. This year, an employee almost could not return to Taiwan for the Lunar New Year.

--- Business-trip expenses are not credited until nearly two months later.

3. Salary

--- Lower than the industry average.

--- Pay is issued only on the fifth working day of each month; when there is a public holiday or weekend, payment is actually delayed....

4. Job duties

--- Job duties are reassigned arbitrarily. An engineering manager may end up being put in charge of the marketing department.

--- Instructions are given at noon, with documents required by the end of the workday, only for them not to be reviewed afterward.

--- Submit a PDCA report every day. Once you write down the know-how, just wait to be laid off!
