Working hours are relatively flexible, with a new benefit of not deducting pay for being up to 15 minutes late.
Taking leave is also relatively convenient, and some colleagues are friendly.
The advantage is the relatively greater flexibility; see below for the disadvantages.
I recently discovered that the work I am responsible for involves the design work of approximately six companies plus one additional company under the company’s umbrella.
Although the other companies generally do not have that much work most of the time, this was not mentioned during the interview or on the job bank listing...
The salary is fixed, with no raise during the probationary period.
Whether there is an annual bonus depends on the company’s profitability for the entire year; the only other benefit is probably being able to taste the products.
The turnover rate is high, and it is a family business.
The work is also often rushed, with urgent requests to produce something within a day or two, or being informed only a few days in advance about what needs to be done.
Some positions have had more than three people replaced within a year, or remain vacant.
