None. Absolutely no pros.
Can't say.
1. If you are brave enough to work at this company, you are welcome to come and give it a try. Other companies treat their employees like treasures; here, you are worked like a man, as far as the warehouse is concerned.
You must have three times the strength of a man and 1,000 times the courage and perseverance to survive, because there is always a supervisor who resembles an ancient eunuch (this is a metaphor) and only gives orders verbally while the people beside him essentially become robots doing the work. From time to time, he even uses other people's body types as jokes, which is already a form of verbal bullying. Truly, a supervisor who places standards above everything else.
2. From an administrative perspective, pay here is generally much lower than at other companies. Don't ever expect a raise, because although your supervisor will help write the raise request, the prerequisite is that your supervisor has to like you. Even if it is submitted, it may be rejected 77 times out of 49 by upper management, because the company probably doesn't have the budget to give you a raise, right? (I'm guessing.)
Raises usually go to people who flatter their supervisors, curry favor, and are lazy. The lazier you are, the higher your rating—this is truly a baffling logic. The company has a supervisor evaluation form used to assess your year-end bonus, but this evaluation is very strange: it is not based on your ability, but on how much the supervisor likes you. In particular, seeing the warehouse's monthly ratings is enough to make you clutch your hands in shock: lazy people and slackers get extremely high scores, while those who work seriously get low scores. There are so many question marks—what kind of divine logic is used for these ratings? It seems to be based entirely on the supervisor's mood and feelings! They swear that they rate you based on your work attitude.
3. As for graphic design, generally speaking, friends who have worked as designers say that the company supervisor provides the images and you just create the designs. That is also the case here, but there is a points system: you must achieve a certain number of points each day to receive a bonus. If you fail to reach the target, the supervisor will make sarcastic remarks about you and loudly announce it in meetings: “So-and-so failed to reach the required points.”
4. As for sales, aside from the fact that their underwear sales perform very well and they are constantly restocking, if you want to receive a large amount of bonuses, you must have the ability to persuade your supervisor so that they will let you stock products. Otherwise, you cannot receive their so-called monthly salary of 100,000 in bonuses. The products are all from Taobao: bought cheaply and sold at extremely high prices. Do they think everyone is a sucker? Why not just buy them directly from Taobao or Shopee, where they are much cheaper? The quality of the products is exactly what you would expect from Taobao. You might say that Taobao also has good products, but given the company's costs, how could they possibly let you purchase higher-priced products? They want everything cheap while also demanding high quality—the impossible combination of wanting both a good horse and for it to eat grass. Only people who shout about needing money all day can stay there (birds of a feather flock together, after all).
Because many former employees have said that her sales results were all obtained by snatching customers or products, and that she has serious persecutory delusions (I don't know whether this has improved), she would take products that you sold well and snatch them away to sell herself. She is indeed quite hardworking in that respect. Pretending to be pitiful—does she think the company is a harem where everyone competes for favor? Is it worth hurting others for money? People with seriously flawed character should be careful: she is a smiling tiger. Once you go in, you'll know. If you want to make money, then work honestly and don't steal or snatch; let your performance speak for itself. Things obtained by snatching last only temporarily. Never hurt your colleagues for money—everyone is there to work.
As for the other departments, from what I have seen, their turnover is very high. There is a lot to do: you need to create images, list products, find products, create item numbers, set up campaigns, negotiate campaigns, and so on. Sometimes one person has to handle everything and may need help packing orders. The company does not want you to work overtime, but if you haven't finished your work, you still have to take it home to do—isn't that the same thing? Even when you are on leave or sick, you still keep receiving calls from the company. If you work in sales here and want to rest, dream on, because there is no backup.
5. Regarding leave, what is strange is that if you want to take one day off, you need to apply a week in advance; two or three days, such as a consecutive holiday, requires applying a month in advance; four days requires two months in advance. Before a regular holiday, the company says that, in principle, it does not recommend taking leave, and if you do, it will be included in your performance evaluation. Usually, taking that many days off may be because you have a family trip scheduled around a long weekend, but you feel embarrassed to request leave because it may affect your performance bonus. Don't you think that is unreasonable? Special leave is a right granted to workers by the government, but the employer sets unreasonable restrictions on it. You cannot finish using all the leave, but you also cannot finish your work. They still force you to take leave without paying you for it, unless you have to stay at the company for three full years before you can exchange it for money.
6. Regarding department transfers, the company transfers you wherever it wants. It will ask you, but by the time they ask, they have usually already made the decision. They are not consulting with you; they are informing you. They lack the generosity an employer should have. There is no communication here, only compromise: if you don't like it, leave. That's all; there is nothing else.
7. The company does not want you to work overtime because it would waste electricity and air-conditioning costs. At first, I thought the company cared about us and sympathized with how tired we were, but it turns out everything was for the sake of saving on electricity.
8. In conclusion, if you still want to try joining your esteemed company, you are welcome to do so. This would also conveniently confirm the points I made above, and I would sincerely admire you.
9. There are many things prohibited at work. For example, during lunch breaks, you cannot use the company's electricity for personal matters. Working overtime is considered a waste of electricity.
