Workplace reviews and discussion: 鉅瑋實業有限公司

Complies with the Labor Standards Act.

The deputy manager of the Materials Department is an energetic and positive person with strong execution skills, unlike what other reviews say—that he only talks without taking action.

The office atmosphere is poor, with departments scheming against one another and coworkers doing the same.

Senior coworkers do not want to teach you anything. They will not even tell you which area you are responsible for cleaning. If you finish cleaning early, your coworkers will nitpick: “Did you really sweep? Did you wipe here?” So remember: cleaning is something you have to perform for everyone to see.

The final reason I decided to resign was that, during the lunch break, I did not return to the office to look at my phone until 12:50. The next day, my coworkers surrounded me and said that the sound of my mouse during lunch had disturbed their rest, and even claimed to have a recording as proof. If you simply press a mouse a few times while recording with your phone, how can you tell when it was pressed or who pressed it? If I had to keep dealing with these baseless accusations, it would probably cut my life expectancy in half.

During lunch breaks, typing and working by people at the deputy-manager level or above is treated as a heavenly lullaby, while a new employee clicking a mouse is described as though they had pressed a three-and-a-half-ton speaker.

There is a culture of pretending to be busy in the office after work. Since I was an intern, I stayed behind to see whether I could help with anything. In the end, everyone was just chatting and browsing the web, then telling others that they were busy until 9 p.m. every day without applying for overtime.

However, the deputy manager did not seem to care whether you stayed late to work overtime; he only cared whether you handled things properly. So the next day, I stopped participating in the charade.

The above describes my own department, but this company’s turnover rate is truly frighteningly high. I don’t know whether that is because the company has many employees or whether other departments have their own problems as well. During my first week on the job, someone resigned on four of the days.
