1. Individual workstation and a personal locker

2. Punctual working hours, with no need for overtime

3. No need to add colleagues on LINE for contact; you can enjoy your private life after work

4. Company handouts cannot be taken home, so there is no need to study at home

5. Comprehensive training for newcomers, with the pace accelerated or slowed according to individual ability

6. Flexible working hours and not much pressure

7. A young team, which means colleagues and supervisors are easy to communicate with

8. Generous bonuses; as long as the basic requirements are met, they start at least at NT$5,000

9. Taking leave is simple; you do not have to force yourself to work when feeling unwell, and the supervisors are understanding

10. Convenient transportation; it takes less than two minutes to walk from the MRT station

1. Poor sound insulation; you can hear even a knock from the next room

2. Food around the area is relatively expensive, and it is inconvenient if you do not bring lunch (however, colleagues often order meals together, so ordering food is a solution)

3. The learning content is extremely difficult. Without a certain level of intelligence, you have to compensate with twice the effort

4. Newcomer training does not start at the same time for everyone. Sometimes you may be the only new hire that week, so your training period can feel lonely… there is no one to discuss things with (the sense of helplessness is considerable unless you are sufficiently independent)

5. Each hurdle is difficult, but each can be overcome (you may think that passing the first chapter means you are finished, only to find there is a second and third hurdle… The financial product knowledge is taught very thoroughly, and you also have to learn sales techniques. It only gets more difficult—there is no highest level)

6. Inconvenient for those who commute by motorcycle or car (traffic is prone to congestion after work, and parking nearby is difficult to find)

7. It is difficult to lose weight while working here (colleagues order drinks every day; to avoid drinking, you would have to be able to turn a blind eye and deaf ear XD)

8. Not suitable for people with low intelligence who are unwilling to make an effort (though I am actually not very intelligent, I study very hard)

9. Your peers basically will not understand what you have learned here (even people who have worked in banks may not necessarily know about leveraged products)

10. Much like the previous point, it is a job that is difficult for people around you to recognize, since not many people in Taiwan work in the foreign exchange market
