Shared purely as a former employee: In general, working hours are quite punctual. There is a company cafeteria meal for NT$20, which is very good value. The company environment is great: all the restrooms have bidet toilets and hand dryers, and the office has relatively new overall décor. The pantry has a refrigerator and a coffee machine for making your own coffee—you just need to pay with coins. Personally, I found the salary acceptable, though of course it depends on each person’s position; different positions have different salary negotiation circumstances. Regarding raises, there were two raises over two years. The company uses KPIs, followed by self-evaluation and a supervisor evaluation. I received a raise after doing what I was supposed to do, but I don’t know about other positions. There is a shuttle bus that can take you to the MRT station, though I never used it. Motorcycle and car parking spaces can both be requested, but they are self-paid. The basement spaces are highly sought after and require queuing. Regarding supervisors, I will only comment on my own department: I felt that mine was quite negligent, and he also left before I did. Relations among colleagues were fairly harmonious. Of course, there are cliques everywhere, but my department was fine. The company provides departments with meal allowances: once a month, you can order takeout or eat out together, with expenses reimbursed based on actual costs. The main thing is simply to do your own work well—listen more and speak less. If you have a particular skill you want to apply or hone, this place is probably decent. As for why I left, it was because I had to move away from Taoyuan, so I had no choice but to leave; the commute was simply too far.
The food is too light. Although NT$20 is very good value, if you prefer strongly seasoned food, you may want to skip it. There are not many dining options nearby; downstairs, the only choice is a FamilyMart across the street, otherwise you are left with ordering delivery. Some supervisors are of questionable quality—I don’t know how they became supervisors—but most supervisors are probably fine. The facial-recognition access control often malfunctions, so attendance frequently has to be corrected. The vendor at the time probably did a sloppy job. The internet is not very stable and seems to have frequent problems; shared folders cannot be accessed, and even after calling IT to fix it, the issue cannot be permanently resolved. There are too few indoor motorcycle parking spaces, and it takes a long time waiting in line to get one.
