Workplace reviews and discussion: Le Ruban patisserie_法朋有限公司

None whatsoever!!!

The overtime hours are extremely long. Starting work at 7 a.m. and getting home at 1 or 2 a.m. has long been the norm. If I hadn’t wanted to learn the techniques of a famous chef, I would have quit long ago.

Perhaps it was precisely because things were so harsh that so many people quit immediately. Later, the chef even made a rule that you could not copy the recipes until after three months. Also, only supervisors were allowed to use their phones during work, so those kids who only want the recipes should think it over carefully.

However, the owner no longer works in the kitchen. Nowadays, everything is left to the team leaders at each location. The coworkers are very difficult to get along with and have formed several little cliques, usually centered around the team leaders. (If you flatter the team leader, your days will be a little easier.)

If you cannot successfully get into the team leader’s clique, you will be subjected to all kinds of nasty remarks. Whether you do things well or badly, they always have plenty to criticize.

Once each department (cakes, mousse, and cocoa) has finished its own work, you still cannot leave early. You have to help with the work of other departments or help wash and clean for them first. And most importantly!!!

Cleaning time does not count toward your overtime hours ☺️☺️☺️

Because the great owner believes that cleaning is an employee’s duty~ The all-day general cleaning before the Lunar New Year is treated the same way!

There are no holiday bonuses or year-end bonuses. The only thing you get is a cake during your birthday month—but I never received one at all. I really must not have joined the team leader’s clique; they would not even give me the benefits I was supposed to receive.

You will see every aspect of humanity there, including many people who cannot stand seeing others do well and who speak in a cutting, sarcastic way. Some people’s health deteriorates terribly after joining (nosebleeds, blood in their urine, or even fainting outright). Friends who want to experience life can give it a try.
