Workplace reviews and discussion: 威煦軟體開發有限公司

Most of the colleagues are nice, giving you someone to comfort you while you’re questioning your life at work.

The babies are all suffering inside; the babies talk about it privately.

Translation of 104’s bullshit copy

【★Wishing exclusive】

0. Unwavering values: Integrity, amplification, growth!

-> The boss and the boss’s wife have very interesting logic and often misunderstand what integrity means.

-> The boss often suddenly goes back on promises made to clients, then says that wasn’t our current development goal, because he frequently gets stuck in a loop changing the roadmap.

-> The boss and the boss’s wife are best at destroying everyone’s motivation to grow without realizing it. Eventually, everyone just wants to follow orders and do the work without thinking.

1. Quarterly salary-increase challenge: Every quarter, you can launch Wishing’s exclusive salary-increase competition; for outstanding talent, getting a raise four times a year is not a dream.

-> It’s highly subjective, and no one knows what the criteria are. Sucking up is the way to win; people who slack off at work still get all kinds of raises.

-> Salaries are below the industry average, and then they ask you to do more while saying you failed to meet expectations.

2. Original nine-level job grades: A crystal-clear promotion path lets you rise step by step without worries.

-> If you’re obedient enough (even when it’s obviously a dead end), you can rise step by step very quickly.

-> An original bullshit job-grade system. Is it really healthy to put a bunch of Juniors and Seniors all under Senior?

3. Wishing Bar: A fun company dinner once a month, where you can exchange all kinds of new knowledge and experiences with colleagues.

-> In reality, it’s a regular session of listening to the boss spout useless bullshit.

4. The most comfortable office environment: Herman Miller ergonomic computer chairs, Microsoft or MacBook laptops, dual Dell monitors, and sit-stand desks—the ultimate tools to maximize your combat power.

-> This is the one that comes closest to the truth. However, some new employees actually don’t have Herman Miller chairs to sit in, but let’s forgive them on the grounds that they didn’t have time to restock.

5. Convenient transportation: The office is located in the integrated building at Songshan Station, with convenient transfers to the MRT, trains, and buses, so transportation won’t become an obstacle.

-> How wonderful—finally, one item that is completely true. What an honest company.

6. Company cars provided, so business trips and official errands are worry-free.

-> They do indeed have them, but supposedly they’re difficult and uncomfortable to drive. Still, after seeing the points above, let’s not ask for too much.

7. Super-generous interbank privileges: 100 fee-free interbank withdrawals/transfers every month.

-> This can even be used as a highlight? How out of touch with the real world are they? Look at how hard things are for HR—they couldn’t find any highlights, so they had to write this.
