None
1. A new supervisor is brought in every year.
2. The rules here change without notice, and you can be blacklisted immediately, depending on the supervisor’s mood.
3. Smart people get pushed out. You can’t ignore what others say, but you also can’t be too stupid.
4. They call themselves a happy company, but the benefits keep getting reduced, while more and more is deducted from the benefits fund.
5. This isn’t a performance-based department, yet the supervisor says performance is also a key evaluation criterion. As a result, those who receive bonuses almost every month end up receiving the smallest year-end bonuses, so it’s all just spin.
6. Whenever something goes wrong, employees are made to take the blame, and accused of negligence,
but employees don’t actually have that much authority; many matters need to be reported up the chain.
7. If someone dislikes you, a chain reaction among a group of people pressures you to resign, instead of simply giving you severance pay.
8. This department really likes forcing experienced employees out. We do the most work, get none of the good assignments, and have to do all the bad ones.
9. When someone files a complaint, they don’t verify it and instead directly force the employee to confess.
10. If you like an elementary-school-style management model, you might consider this company. They often use disciplinary-record threats.
11. People without the ability can become supervisors and employees are still forced to respect them. Most importantly, the supervisor only knows how to copy and paste and acts like a parrot. When something goes wrong, the supervisor avoids the issue and tells employees to face it themselves. (These are all matters the supervisor should handle; this is mentioned to point out that there are problems.)
12. Most importantly, base salaries are never adjusted. At a normal company, you would use your performance results to negotiate bonuses with the company. Sorry, but that isn’t how it works here: when performance is three times higher than before, bonuses are effectively cut.
If you just want to go in and try it out, you can consider it. But if you want career advancement, I recommend choosing another company—possibly even 104 is far better than us.
