You can train your resilience and work capabilities.
One person has to do the work of three or four people.
The salary is still just the minimum wage required by the Labor Standards Act.
Train yourself to become the cheap and useful employee that most companies love—great stuff!
Even setting aside the fact that the salary is several thousand dollars lower than the salary listed for the position on 104, many of the job duties were never mentioned during the interview. The job title is only for show; once you join, you have to do everything anyway. Everyone has the workload of a plant manager but the salary of an intern.
The concept is to trick people into joining first and worry about the rest later. I’ve even heard that one colleague was transferred without warning from the office on Hankou Road in Taichung to Dajia. The commute became longer, yet they received no transportation allowance or salary increase whatsoever.
As for hygiene inside the plant, there’s not much more to say. You often see mousetraps, and there’s no way to know whether the raw materials and supplies have been touched by mice.
The boss has no awareness of disease prevention and often smokes e-cigarettes in the office without wearing a mask. If they happen to carry a virus, it could put employees and their families at risk of infection.
Management only gives employees motivational speeches, telling everyone to work hard together and get through difficult times. They do not reflect at all on the high turnover rate. After all, cheap disposable chopsticks can always be rehired, and employees are expected to do the work of several people for low wages.
If you want a job where you can accumulate experience in several types of work at the same time, give it a try.
