The supervisor is a good person, and healthcare-related topics are a huge opportunity, providing an endless supply of material.
There are many drawbacks!
Starting with the minor ones: the workplace is simply rather old, and there is no meeting room. If you need to meet with the boss, you do so in the boss’s office. If individual departments need to hold a meeting, they have to use the small table next to the warehouse or the area beside the supervisor’s desk. (This is actually not too bad.)
The more serious drawbacks concern the boss. Some people may feel that these things are no big deal and that such incidents happen often, but I still wanted to share them so that people who do not want to step on landmines can avoid them.
1. You can often hear the boss yelling in the office and loudly berating people; occasionally, abusive language is used.
2. During meetings, the boss will say: “We’re only discussing this right now.” But what this actually means is that you should just listen to the boss and do as instructed.
3. The boss likes news headlines that preferably carry a threatening tone. He believes that this is what makes them eye-catching and makes people want to read them.
4. When you see the boss arrive at the company in the morning, you must say, “Good morning, boss,” otherwise your supervisor may be called in for a meeting!
5. When the boss tells you to do something, if you think there is another option or a better way to do it, he will say that he is the boss and that you should simply revise it according to his instructions.
6. When speaking with the boss, if he criticizes you, you can only accept it. If you want to resolve an issue or understand how to do something, you should ask as respectfully as possible.
7. If you fail to satisfy the boss, he will tell you to stop working and leave immediately.
8. The company does not provide an annual year-end bonus.
9. The company does not provide computers; you must bring your own.
10. If your work requires software such as Adobe, you must purchase it yourself and cover the cost yourself.
11. There is no overtime pay.
