No advantages
Personally, I think this company really isn’t suitable for staying at long term.
I strongly, strongly, strongly advise against joining this company. Run while you can.
1. Even if you have worked here for a full three months, although the Labor Standards Act stipulates that you may use annual leave, unfortunately, this company does not allow you to use it. All leave must be taken as personal leave, and your salary will be deducted. If you take more than three days of leave in a month, one additional day’s salary will also be deducted (meaning that if you take three days off, four days’ salary will be deducted).
Additionally, your annual leave entitlement is always one year behind your length of service.
(In other words, you only receive seven days of annual leave in your second year of employment.) However, you cannot take this annual leave either.
2. When summer arrives, office staff cannot even comfortably use the air conditioning—it is unbearably hot.
(The air conditioning may only be turned on for four hours after 10:30 a.m. if the indoor temperature reaches 32°C or above.)
(Even if the temperature reaches the required level on rainy days, the air conditioning still cannot be used.)
3. Using mobile phones at work is completely prohibited, including answering emergency calls from home.
4. All company employees are prohibited from drinking hand-shaken beverages.
