Workplace reviews and discussion: 迦勒廣告事業有限公司

There are absolutely no pros. Everything written on 104 about the benefits is a lie: there is no afternoon tea, no employee gatherings, and no group insurance.

I applied for an administrative position, but was then told to take on the work of an engineering sales position, and there were no bonuses to receive. I helped the assistant handle the subcontracting of banner removal and assign the work to contractors, but the bonus went to the assistant (his wife is the assistant), and they never told you that there was a banner-removal bonus. The bonus system was completely opaque and utterly ridiculous. If you bring it up, they might say that administrative staff do not get bonuses, but his wife is also an administrative employee and receives bonuses while having other people do the work. During the interview, they said both sides should be honest with each other, but the company itself did not uphold that at all. It was completely untrustworthy.

You can tell from small details whether the boss is stingy. There was no afternoon tea, group insurance, transportation allowance, or anything like that. Everything written on 104 was a lie. Everyone, run away—do not take this terrible job under any circumstances. During the interview, they told you that you would only go out once or twice a month to deliver documents, but that was completely untrue! During my 14 days there, I was only at the company for 3 or 4 days; the rest of the time I was out doing fieldwork. They also asked me to supervise engineering projects, which was completely outside my responsibilities. And even if I went out, they did not reimburse any transportation expenses. They expected me to rent a scooter, and when I asked whether the rental cost would be reimbursed, they said no. At the time, they had said that I needed to have the ability to get around. Of course I have a driver's license and can ride a scooter, but if you do not pay for my scooter rental, am I renting it for nothing? This was completely different from what they said in the interview.

The assistant kept trying to persuade me to ride and rent a scooter, but the company had no group insurance, so if anything happened, I would be responsible for it myself! When I told her I wanted to take the MRT because I had already bought a monthly pass, she asked whether there were many scooter rentals nearby. I said there were quite a few, and she responded that I could rent one since I knew how to ride. Utterly ridiculous! Even when I said I wanted to take the MRT, they told me to manage my own time better. Administrative staff are expected to have transportation mobility, but the point is that I applied for an administrative position—helping you with fieldwork is already doing you a favor! The boss and his wife were incredibly demanding.^^

Then, on my first or second day, they asked me to find a restaurant for the year-end banquet. It was already almost the end of the year, and they only then asked someone to make a reservation, when everywhere was nearly fully booked! A year-end banquet is something that can be arranged early; waiting until the end of the year shows that the company does not really consider its employees—it treats such things as optional. They said the only requirements were a private room and a round table. Here comes the ridiculous part: after I had found options and read them out, he immediately said no to Longdu, saying the exterior looked terrible—LOL. Then I mentioned Pengyuan, and he replied that it was not good and the food was terrible. Finally, he said I could look at the Grand Hyatt. You already know what he wanted, so why ask someone else to search? Why not just tell me directly that you wanted me to book it? There were only 10 people, a pitifully small number. Now I finally understand why they always have so few employees and can never fill their positions! The company has huge problems, while the boss and his wife have an unrealistically high opinion of themselves.

I applied for an administrative position, but there were so many tasks that they could never be finished. Before you had completed one task, they would keep assigning you more. I was somewhat overwhelmed, and the assistant even said, “When we offered you 38,000, we told you there would be a lot of work.” The point is that your workday is 10 hours with a 1-hour break—9 hours of work. They are simply counting the extra hour worked each day into the monthly salary, okay? And 38,000 is before labor and health insurance deductions, not after them! Do you really think that is a lot? The work was extremely miscellaneous and completely unreasonable.

There are many other ridiculous things I will not even mention. See for yourselves. If you are very self-sacrificing and want to do charity work, feel free to join and be exploited. That is all I have to say. The boss and his wife will not thank you; they will only take everything for granted.^^
