Retirement; nothing else.
1. The company does not make money and looks like it could go under at any time.
2. There is no year-end bonus, salary adjustment, bonus, or anything else—only low pay.
3. Relations with contract manufacturers are poor because management only asks you to bargain down prices and place rush orders.
4. The system records are chaotic and inaccurate. People take things without notifying anyone, but when the records are wrong, you are still expected to investigate the cause.
5. The company supports a bunch of deadweight employees. Sales staff have no performance pressure and can use Facebook or watch movies at work without consequences.
6. In general, long-serving employees lack ability but love to put on airs. Counters are closing one after another, and the revenue is not even enough to cover store rent and salaries.
7. Only consider applying here if you are truly out of options. People who can actually work cannot stay, and those who remain just have nothing to do and waste their days.
8. You cannot learn anything; there are simply lots of miscellaneous tasks and redundant employees.
9. Decisions on purchasing raw materials are not finalized until the last minute, after which you are expected to place rush orders with contract manufacturers. After the work is completed, the company does not pay and is very good at haggling with the manufacturers.
10. They cut the contract manufacturers’ gross margins to the bone and still complain that prices are too high. You need a very thick skin to stay here: you will not learn any skills, but you can certainly make your face very thick.
