Flexible work environment and working hours that you can manage yourself

This post is a review from the southern region. I was a “service staff member” in the south. First of all, there was no overtime pay, so the company would lure people in by saying that “overtime is done by inefficient people,” claiming that if you finished early, you could leave early—yet the entire company was still working overtime after hours ==.

Apart from printer-related information, there was occasional training. The usual work involved going to customers’ sites to repair and maintain printers. Someone accompanied and trained me only during the first week; after that, I had to go out on my own. The advantage was the freedom to arrange my own working hours. The disadvantage was that there was no one to ask when problems arose, and many issues had to be solved on my own. The company constantly claimed to be a large corporation, yet did not have a complete training program, which was also questionable.

In addition, commuting was done by scooter, so the process caused considerable wear on the scooter’s parts. Naturally, there was a fuel subsidy, but it was only available to service staff who needed to travel farther. As for the rest of the employees, I suppose there was no need to hope for it from a company that was unwilling to honestly pay even overtime.

Another thing I found most frustrating was the most basic office computers. It was no longer a question of whether they were good or not; we had to somehow cobble together usable computers ourselves. Either the computer tower malfunctioned or the monitor was damaged, with unstable, multicolored display issues that seriously affected our work and caused considerable eye discomfort. Even after reporting this to the department supervisor, all we got were dismissive remarks such as “just make do with it” or “it still works.”

Besides the points mentioned above, there were many other terrible issues that are too numerous to list. Sharing this also means that I have already resigned.

If anyone who is considering joining happens to see this, I hope you will think twice. Oh, right—if you do join, remember to start on the first day of the month; otherwise, that month’s salary will be calculated based on the minimum wage ^_^
