Workplace reviews and discussion: 文案的美有限公司

There is a lot of negative information about this place, but those willing to trade their physical and mental health for the experience of honing their skills through the work might still consider it.

I work in企劃, and many people around me are fans of this copywriting master. In fact, one of my friends and my friend’s college roommate have both worked there. Since I once considered applying, I asked around and heard some things, then noticed that the operator’s Facebook posts seemed to suggest a strong case of split personality, haha. Every time I compare what my friends say actually happened (with screenshots as proof) with the operator’s public statements, I feel like this whole show is incredibly entertaining～～

According to people on the inside, quite a few former employees became so emotionally distressed after leaving that they eventually had to see a psychiatrist. The company’s only manager is extremely emotional and skilled at emotional blackmail. They frequently sigh loudly and bang on the keyboard forcefully, keeping employees in a constant state of tension. They also treat their own emotional behavior as part of the company culture and expect employees to be understanding, and even wrote a book complaining that their employees did not understand their good intentions and seeking sympathy. Some scenes in the book also do not match what actually happened.

They are also extremely impatient when training employees. Whenever they become emotional or suddenly decide to criticize an employee, their tone becomes very unpleasant, and they give examples that are highly unconstructive and abstract. Encountering a patient operator seems to require the level of burning incense and praying for blessings. Problems they cannot think of a solution to or are too lazy to face are often casually dumped on employees as “training.”

There have also been cases where clients were dissatisfied with copy written by the operator, and the operator ignored their usual demands regarding employees’ work attitudes and hastily ended the collaboration with the client through slick wording (I suspect they were also relying partly on their reputation to make the client afraid to say more).

Recently, I started seeing friends in the industry reposting job openings from this company again. The content on 104 keeps switching between “benefits galore” and “the work is extremely exhausting.” Unless the boss changes, this turnover rate probably will not change either.

As for the manager flying into a rage when employees submitted overtime forms, or emotionally bullying current employees after being reported for violating the Labor Standards Act, there is simply too much to say, so I will leave it at that. One piece of advice: if you have doubts about a company you are considering interviewing with, try finding a way to ask current or former employees. You will really discover many little stories～^^
