Workplace reviews and discussion: 恆星科技股份有限公司

The relationships among colleagues are very good, and everyone gets along harmoniously. HR is also very nice. Apart from the people, I can't think of any other advantages.

1. The company's policies are changed over and over again. Its favorite thing to do is maliciously lay off employees under the pretext of organizational changes.

2. Job responsibilities at the company can change at any time. Employees in position A are forced to do the work of position B; if they cannot accept it, they are laid off.

3. There is a very useless CTO who occupies the position without doing the work. Normally, it seems that nothing has anything to do with him, but he only makes hindsight comments in meetings.

4. During typhoons, employees are directly required to come to the office, regardless of their safety—just because of the originally scheduled release timeline. What is especially ridiculous about this company is that it releases at least twice a week on average; if there is something they want to put out, they can release it every day.

5. Managers believe that employees should not leave work too punctually every day, and that staying late to work overtime is how you show responsibility for the product. They even require employees to be on call at night or on holidays, without paying overtime. Employees who are not on call are considered irresponsible toward the product, and their performance ratings are lower than those of people who worked overtime because something went wrong.

6. They often use performance bonuses as a way to placate employees, but in reality they have only paid one once. In practice, this is a company that is both stingy and loves to haggle with employees. They want employees to take more responsibility for the product but refuse to treat them better. (The benefits promised during the interview, which were better than those required by the Labor Standards Act, were completely cut for no known reason after employees worked excessive overtime for the product, without any explanation or reason.)

7. Requirements come from all directions from upper management, but their opinions are inconsistent with one another, making it very difficult for people below to work. You satisfy one manager's requirements, only to have them overturned by an even higher-level executive. What the hell?

8. Meteorite-like requirements: they must be delivered today, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, and then they complain about why other departments do a better job. They only take care of one site, while we have sites one through seven. What the hell again?

In conclusion, after saying all this... anyone who wants a good quality of work life should absolutely not fall into this hellhole!
