Pros

Let me copy this down for you first.

1. Employees with three or more years of service (regardless of rank or position) who rank first in performance evaluations may qualify for a million-dollar car purchase subsidy bonus (two slots per year).

2. Annual overseas (or domestic) company trips: the employee’s own tour fee is completely free (subsidies are available if accompanied by family members/partners): 2023 Pattaya, Thailand; 2022 Little Liuqiu, Pingtung; 2019 Matsu Islands; 2018 Seoul, South Korea; 2017–2016 Sabah, Malaysia; 2014 Tokyo, Japan; 2013 Huangshan, Anhui; 2012 the Forbidden City in Beijing; 2011 Singapore; 2010 Shanghai World Expo; 2007 Angkor Wat, Cambodia; 2006 Palau; 2005 Kyushu, Japan……

3. Year-end banquet activities combined with one- to two-day domestic employee outings (free participation for accompanying family members/partners): 2022 Sun Moon Lake, Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village + Puli, two days and one night; 2021 Lihpao Land; 2020 Sanxia Daban Root Forest + Daxi; 2019 Taichung Flora Expo……

4. Annual outdoor sports, leisure, and fitness activities (fully subsidized by the company: road-race registration fees): 2023 Far Eastern New Century Classic Marathon; 2022 Hsinchu City Marathon; 2022 Hukou Crown Road-Running Marathon; 2019 Far Eastern New Century Classic Marathon; 2017 Hsinchu Far Eastern New Century Marathon; 2016 Hsinchu City Marathon; 2015 Hsinchu Beipu to Baoshan Reservoir road race; 2015 Hsinchu Pofeng Cup Cycling Challenge, as well as various large and small road races.

5. Two-day weekends; five working days per week; overtime pay reported in accordance with the law or the option to exchange it for compensatory leave.

6. Year-end bonuses, annual (mid-year) performance profit-sharing bonuses, May 1 and Dragon Boat Festival holiday cash gifts, and Mid-Autumn Festival gifts.

7. Employee lunch subsidies, plus fully free overtime dinners and meal subsidies for working overtime on holidays.

8. Free annual regular health checkups for employees.

9. Six company vehicles are provided for field staff to use for work.

1. Outstanding employees: the boss has the final say. There are many elderly primates who have stayed there for a long time; forget it if you’re a newbie. During the interview, remember to ask whether anyone has received the subsidy after only three years.

2. 3. Employee travel: LOL.

4. The boss loves road running and wants you to run with him. I just don’t know whether Hsinchu County would compensate him if he ran away, fell, and landed flat on his face.

5. The boss loves you working overtime—preferably in a long-term-care style. He’ll absolutely adore you. (From HuBei 3rd Road, the company looks gorgeous and elegant, with a European-style greenway beside it. I thought it was a wonderful, luxurious nursing home. Bravo, bravo, applause.)

6. Remember to ask clearly during the interview how the bonuses are calculated.

7. I thought nursing homes provided free meals anyway. I wonder whether dinner at a buffet would be fully subsidized.

8. It’s just a health checkup; newbies have to schedule it on their day off.

9. I don’t know how having so many company vehicles could be listed as an advantage.

It has no disadvantages, only an abundance of advantages.

1. The basement parking lot is insanely huge, but only the boss’s car and the boss’s wife’s big G can park there. Employees park on the roadside, so remember to park neatly and fill every available spot, thanks.

2. The office environment is excellent—superficially. It’s all about appearances, thanks. The front looks nice, while the back is [expletive].

3. The Hakka spirit is expressed brilliantly and to the extreme: thrifty and good at managing a household. Ask for five cents, get one cent; ask for a pen refill, get three; ask for an eraser, get half a piece.

4. A nice, clean restroom. Would an ancient emperor use the same restroom as the common people?

5. The leader is clear-headed and eloquent. One sentence from him is like: “What is he talking about?” (During the seventh lunar month, it’s easy to hear ghosts talking.)

6. The leader is learned and asks many questions. The Nobel Prizes in Literature, Natural Sciences, and Medicine all owe him a trophy. He knows astronomy above and geography below, and can talk from outer space to the inner [expletive].

A friendly reminder

1. Under no circumstances should you tell him that you know every provision of the Labor Standards Act, workers’ rights, or salary calculation methods. Otherwise, you will definitely be marked down by him.

2. The boss loves people with great ambitions. You can help realize his grand ideal (becoming a qualified supplier to TSMC).

P.S. Then the toilet-paper supplier must be the greatest of all, because it can serve every TSMC employee.

3. First, look at what kinds of cars are parked along the surrounding roads. That will probably tell you what kind of going rate the boss offers.

In a dream, Mazu once told me: If you want to know whether this boss pays well, just look at what cars the employees drive and how many of them own their homes—you’ll know. Mazu warmly reminds you~

Cons

None whatsoever.

It’s the seventh lunar month, so we still have to say: (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan) (Celebrating Zhongyuan)

The Zhongyuan Ghost Festival offerings are no longer just Ai-Chi—you also need bananas (coming at you) and sugar cane (so you’ll advance section by section next year).
