Workplace reviews and discussion: Hotel WO_威豪聯合股份有限公司

None

1. In March, a bunch of people were laid off, and then we were told to take four days of special personal leave (unpaid).

2. In May, as the pandemic eased and business improved, they started feeling understaffed,

and then asked us to come in and work overtime on our days off (without overtime pay). We were basically being exploited twice over, while the managers comfortably took time off and the employees were always the ones working overtime.

3. The two managers at the Chinese restaurant often do not come to work until noon. Even though things are already too busy for the staff to handle, they do not proactively help during the off-hours.

Otherwise, in the evening, whether there is anything to do or not, they run off to the first floor to chat. Then, when there are lots of customers, they ask why nobody told them. So this is what a manager is supposed to be?! They dress up beautifully and put on nail polish every day; just walking around the workplace counts as helping (how wonderful). They are also the last to arrive and the first to leave the company. When there is a customer complaint, they are the first to hide; whenever something happens with a customer, they push the team leader out to take the fall.

4. This was the first time I heard that you cannot schedule your own annual leave (at the Chinese restaurant); other departments can.
