Learned to become self-reliant and stronger, and realized that it wasn't me who was incapable—the company was.

The guaranteed bonus for the first three months after a new hire joins is acceptable.

When it comes time to attribute sales performance, if it's a toxic location with a bad atmosphere, you can just leave.

I heard that I was the only one personally interviewed by the regional supervisor; previous applicants were interviewed by the store manager or the store's own employees.

I suspect sales were probably low, so they tried to make up for the lack of staff to see whether they could increase revenue.

However, the company basically does not promote itself, so awareness and customer traffic are limited. Under these circumstances, having tourists make purchases and generate revenue is practically impossible.

There were often only 2–3 customers in a day, with the lowest daily revenue being a dismal NT$700.

They claim to operate as a team, but in reality, the atmosphere is entirely individualistic.

The store manager kept saying that he and his colleagues would exchange sales credit with each other.

But he never actually did that. He only claimed to be united when excluding you; in reality, if you gave him sales credit, he would forget to return the favor. It simply didn't work—it was just a way to make new hires curry favor with him.

The store manager not only could not do his job, but also constantly entered accounts incorrectly and miscalculated money. He did not know the company's policies or regulations when asked, and told me to ask headquarters. After I did, I was accused of deliberately overstepping my authority.

Whenever something went wrong, he shifted the blame onto me, and was even criticized by the regional supervisor for evading responsibility 🥲

When I had reported something to the store manager, he said I should have reported it but had failed to do so and had deliberately concealed it. He did not know how to protect his subordinates.

He had very poor emotional control and often brought his personal emotions to work,

or directly argued in the company group chat.

It was invariably all for the sake of becoming the top salesperson.

If he wanted you to resign, he would complain to you that the store had performed so poorly last year that there was no year-end bonus.

Or he would spend all day making personal calls in the store, saying that he was going to be replaced, or complaining that he was paid only NT$3,000 in store-manager allowance and did not want to do such exhausting store-manager work.

Then why not just stop being the store manager? You take the allowance and still complain, don't do your job, and constantly enter accounts incorrectly, causing inventory discrepancies—what exactly are you even here for? 😅

The company also frequently makes last-minute arrangements for employees to travel to other counties or cities to exchange experiences and learn.

However, when the purchased tickets need to be refunded or changed, the company refuses to cover the refund or exchange fees, requiring employees to bear them themselves.

The store manager was able to become store manager because everyone else was driven away by him, including me. I was already the third person.

At present, the company has no plans to hire more staff for this store. I suspect this is probably because sales and customer traffic cannot be increased.
