Workplace reviews and discussion: 想上數位廣告股份有限公司

A former employee who suddenly came across this felt all the anger welling up again and immediately decided to put these tragic memories on record and make them public.

The general manager is a very nice person, and everyone else is nice too—except for the two brainless “senior female managers” on the AM Team.

Before the interview, HR will tell you how ambitious the company is, how much it values employee learning, that it will not make employees work overtime, and that it offers reasonable salaries and benefits.

But after you start working there, you gradually discover that the training resources are outdated and completely useless. Everything is still taught personally by senior colleagues, and the resources are all fake. Even if they tell you before the interview how capable the general manager is and how knowledgeable she is, it has nothing to do with you—she has no time to deal with you and works in a different location, so don’t expect to learn anything from her. But, as general manager, this is not her fault.

The fault lies with the two most senior, brainless female managers on this company’s AM Team. They are extremely selfish and self-righteous. When people discuss matters with them, they are already full of anger yet still grin and act as if they are being humorous and funny. They think being managers makes them superior. It is fine when they go around in circles, but when others do it, it is unacceptable. They waste a great deal of time discussing important matters, and after finally reaching a conclusion, they keep changing it repeatedly. Every time they say the direction needs to be changed, all of us have to work ourselves to the bone again. What exactly do they want? They both clearly have amnesia. They are unbelievably stupid. It makes no difference to them anyway—they only have to talk; they are not the ones actually handling the details. The time wasted is not theirs either. They are incredibly selfish, yet they still think they are the best, the company’s pride and its leading figures. Many new employees have worked with them, failed to adapt, and eventually left. Of course, that leaves only the two of them, so they think they are the best. The problem is fundamentally with them. Every day, all they think about is how to review the hiring system and change the recruitment copy. They even make candidates go through three days of interviews and some kind of new-hire training. No amount of additional training will help! If the general manager of this company truly wants it to expand, she should first seriously review that team of yours—the two brainless “senior mentors”! An incompetent commander exhausts the entire army; issuing contradictory orders while grinning and joking is truly awful.

I guess that when you see this comment someday, you will only respond with a confused “What the hell?” because “a horse doesn’t know how long its face is”—that is exactly the situation here. General manager, don’t be too upset when you see this. This is the reason your internal organization cannot expand. As long as your two senior mentors continue to be managers, talent in your department will keep leaving. All your efforts are being squandered by the people below you!
