The company is a one-minute walk from Xihu Station.

Job duties: (website editor)

Working at this company, you do not receive overtime pay for working overtime; it is compulsorily counted as compensatory leave. Working shifts on national holidays is also counted as compensatory leave, and you cannot choose double pay.

The female manager in the editorial department is very careless and lacks an education system and work guidelines. She often lectures or questions people on a whim. Work standards keep changing, and writing standards also change from one day to the next, making it difficult to adapt. On top of that, you are required to achieve high traffic.

As for the work itself? Writing 18 articles a day is horrifying. The Katteno website follows the principle of “all articles under heaven are copied from one another,” plagiarizing sensational content from various media outlets and Facebook—in other words, it is a content farm. You also have to pretend to be a netizen posting, and the titles must be extremely brief, such as “Qun Qun’s breasts are so bouncy.” You are expected to attract a large number of views with such ridiculous titles, which is basically impossible.

In addition, this company, Wangyu (Katteno), makes money from website traffic. Its fan page and groups have already been yellow-flagged, and it posts a great many images objectifying women, resulting in numerous reports. The female manager will also complain that the images you post are not attractive enough and repeatedly reject the topics you find as terrible, making you write 18 articles a day until eight or nine o’clock. Most of the time is spent looking for sensational and outrageous “hooks.” The problem is that the female manager herself often does not know the answers to basic questions. It feels as though everyone had already left and she only then became the female manager.

Finally, the editorial department has an extremely high turnover rate. The work-allocation table is changed every few months, and people in the editorial department do not stay long. It is an extremely disposable position, with low pay and heavy workloads. There is also a meeting of more than an hour every week to review article traffic. I recommend not coming here; seriously, looking for another job would be far better.
