Three sections, 5,000.
Those with experience can additionally learn financial management knowledge due to the environment.
The employer is traditional but still reasonably understanding.
1. All the supervisors in a certain department got in through connections (a fruit-themed media company), and their abilities are not particularly impressive.
2. There is a clear shortage of manpower, and some positions are almost expected to handle everything.
3. When a cushy supervisor position opens up, someone with connections is parachuted in (it will not be posted on 104); exhausting entry-level positions are posted on 104 to recruit people (note: this is the culture of that department).
4. Because the entire management level consists of people with connections, issues raised basically never reach the top level (the employer), unless you bypass the chain of command directly.
5. There are absolutely no opportunities for promotion or career development. Promotions go to people with connections, opportunities go to people with connections, and troublesome tasks are assigned to people without connections. You are basically unlikely to get a raise either.
A piece of advice for anyone considering joining this company: negotiate a higher salary from the start. You will not learn much either; in terms of new media, this company is still basically in the “crawling” stage (and shows no sign of wanting to improve).
Also, this company’s systems and the employer are actually not much of a problem (they are even fairly good). The problem is the large number of supervisors who got in through connections, which has thrown the entire company into chaos.
