Workplace reviews and discussion: 弘育聯合會計師事務所

I definitely learned a lot. There aren’t many people in the office, but the workload is unexpectedly heavy. Even if you have a fever at home after testing positive, you can still work. It’s suitable for those of you who like working.

All this learning is built on working without overtime pay, dealing with clients whose materials arrive late and who have a pile of problems, and handling miscellaneous tasks that are suddenly added in.

The responsibility-based system means that no matter how late you receive the materials, you still have to finish them within a certain deadline. The overtime only gets worse. Starting with various withholding tax filings, I worked overtime continuously for half a year, leaving work at 9 p.m. every day and even coming in for overtime on four to five consecutive Saturdays. For everyone’s reference.

If everyone is forced to work overtime on Saturdays, overtime pay is calculated only at the regular weekday rate. You are not allowed to submit overtime forms for overtime on weekdays, so naturally you will not be paid. In any case, they simply do not take the Labor Standards Act seriously.

In addition, you cannot receive the bookkeeping bonus if you miss the deadline. Even when they are aware of the client’s circumstances, they will not help extend the deadline for you. You have to negotiate with your supervisor yourself to obtain the bonus; otherwise, you worked overtime for nothing and still will not get paid.

If you are very good at enduring hardship and enjoy tempering your character, this place will suit you very well. The boss will think that because you are cheerful by nature, it is appropriate to be especially harsh toward you; they believe they are harsh because you are worth cultivating, and because you should be able to withstand hurtful words and grow from them.

Anyway, while working here, I often found myself thinking about going to a nearby tall building to feel the wind.
