Workplace reviews and discussion: 國華琺瑯製衣機械工業股份有限公司

I can't think of any other disadvantages for now

1. Guohua Enamel Garment Machinery Industrial Co., Ltd. is the Taiwan branch of Samoan company Guangli Industrial Co., Ltd.; many colleagues are employed under different companies.

2. Current colleagues said that the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival bonuses were later not paid on time and were only paid at the end of the year. I don't know whether this has improved.

3. The job website mentioned movie appreciation events, department gatherings, and Family Day, but I never encountered any of these being held.

4. Colleagues who went on business trips said there was no business-trip allowance, and this was not disclosed during interviews. Don't expect an annual company dinner either.

5. If payday falls on a holiday, payment is deferred until the next working day. My current company pays early in such cases.

6. After being accepted in the interview process, there was no offer letter, only a phone notification. If problems arose, there would be no evidence to protect oneself. I don't know whether this has changed.

7. There were no promotion opportunities or salary adjustments. During the several years I worked there, my salary was never adjusted. The salary I received upon joining remained the same until I resigned; they might only discuss your salary when you submitted your resignation.

8. Expatriate employees could only receive the local salary, while labor and health insurance had to be handled personally. Those serving as management trainees had to remain in training for a very long time. The factory dormitory was old, with two people per room and no personal space. The turnover rate among expatriate employees was extremely high.

9. You only know whether a system is easy to use after changing companies. Guohua's system seemed to have been written by the engineers themselves, so problem resolution was very slow. My current company uses DINGCHA, which is much better to use.

10. The hardware engineers in Taipei were very nice, but the software staff had an unpleasant tone. Only after leaving did I realize that there was not much wrong with my own perspective. I was almost corrected to the point of questioning my life and having my worldview affected.

Therefore, there are many better companies out there. I strongly do not recommend this one.
