They give out things like rewards.

But they're pitifully small.

There are so many that they would take forever to list.

At first, HR paints you a rosy picture. Then, when you’re finally being laid off, they say, “Oh, did I mention that before?”

Then HR says the coaches will teach you hands-on?

Don’t be silly. They teach you a tiny bit, then leave you on your own to go drink water and take a break.

And if you’re not fast, they’ll give you a terrible rating even if you’ve learned it (and even if you’re faster at the demonstrated movement than they are).

They say you’ll be able to evaluate the coaches every week?

But when I said the coach could slow down in some areas, I was pressured and told I could only give a 4 or 5.

Then, for no apparent reason, I was laid off, and they even said, “Oh~ we already offer more than what the Labor Standards Act requires.”

In the end, I found out that the severance pay and benefits they had promised were underreported, and they also tried to force me to fill out a voluntary resignation form.

Otherwise, they would pressure me with legal action.

If I hadn’t stood my ground, they originally planned to pocket the severance pay and withhold the proof of involuntary termination.

During the initial interview, this supervisor even said, “Sure, 35k is okay. I’ll talk to HR for you,” and agreed to it.

But when it got to HR, they said, “No, it’s only 31k. Take it or leave it.”

If I hadn’t been short on money at the time, I would have said thanks but no thanks long ago.

They say the customers are our providers, and that as long as the customers don’t go under, we won’t either.

Right—of course they won’t go under when they can exploit their employees. Even convenience stores have stopped offering discounts, so what are we supposed to expect?

Now that I’ve left, I’m very happy.

To newcomers: please don’t come. Run while you can.

I used to be on the first floor.
