Workplace reviews and discussion: 台灣薩莉亞餐飲股份有限公司

The reasons I would recommend it: at least the HR representative was very straightforward with me. She also said that they would not mind what kind of work you had done before and that everyone was welcome to come for an interview and learn more. If you decide to work at Saizeriya, there will be a second interview. The HR representative said it would include an interview with a Japanese manager and a written test, so you definitely need to prepare.

They also provided a small pizza for interviewees to eat.

The salary has increased to NT$29,500, but it is still only this amount when the perfect-attendance and education allowances are included. The HR representative was also very straightforward in saying that you would be transferred to stores anywhere in Taiwan and would definitely have to work overtime. They are also working toward arranging days off according to the number of red-letter days on the calendar. Transportation expenses are fully reimbursed when using public transportation, but not when commuting by motorcycle.

(Currently, Saizeriya’s southernmost location is in Taoyuan and its northernmost is in Tamsui. If you are transferred to Tamsui or Taoyuan, they say there will be dormitory accommodation, but you still have to pay rent and utilities. The rent seems to be around NT$1,000–2,000, with utilities charged separately.)

You still have to learn both front- and back-of-house operations.
