Workplace reviews and discussion: 世帝喜旅行社股份有限公司

It is an affiliated company of Japan’s JTB travel agency and Taiwan’s South East Travel Service. After leaving work or resigning, you will have plenty of stories to tell. If your dream is to hold a title at a Japanese company, you may want to consider it.

The senior management is constantly in turmoil. Promotions favor Japanese employees and men, and depend entirely on the wishes of HR and the president. After the pandemic, employees were even asked to voluntarily accept pay cuts or “face the consequences.” As a result, the company saved on personnel expenses, while HR placed a friend’s child in an internship position and later forced the department manager to take them on as a full-time employee, even though their language skills were completely inadequate. Not to mention the benefits! As for overtime pay and such matters? At least before I left, I had never heard of anyone daring to apply to HR for it—perhaps it was all for the sake of friendly Taiwan–Japan relations. Otherwise, this would probably have been a company subjected to relentless labor inspections long ago.
