Workplace reviews and discussion: 東志企業股份有限公司

Afternoon tea is provided

1. When I started working there, two senior employees told me verbally that the company does not provide annual leave (the HR department simply does not calculate how many days of annual leave you have)—although taking leave does not result in a salary deduction, many people do not take leave at all (this is the company culture). The company also does not compensate you in cash for unused leave.

Because there is no annual leave, when salaries were immediately reduced by 10%, everyone’s pay was cut right away! The company did not suggest using annual leave first to offset the reduction. Speechless.

2. You are not allowed to have your own ideas or opinions

3. The boss has the final say

4. Cliques

5. People who are good at talking are favored

6. Every email must be printed out for the boss to review, and replies must be written according to his instructions

7. Making one small mistake will get you loudly chewed out (even when the company has suffered no financial loss at all)

8. Senior employees are treated as if they can do no wrong; junior employees are told to stand aside

9. A certain senior manager is very good at passing the buck, yet is favored by the boss because they are good at talking

10. You have to ask the boss about everything, big or small

11. Many people are very eager to curry favor with the boss

12. The boss’s and the junior boss’s words are treated as edicts and must not be disobeyed

13. A completely undemocratic company

14. The company makes mountains out of molehills and is neurotic—making any small mistake will get you harshly reprimanded

15. Not suitable for people who want the freedom to express themselves

16. The office atmosphere is eerie
