Workplace reviews and discussion: 蓋爾國際股份有限公司

The two dogs are very enthusiastic and occasionally jump up at you.

At the beginning, the interview only involved briefly asking about a few things; they did not even look at my portfolio.

Then I was given a typesetting test on a computer.

After I passed all of that, I started work.

The company was very small, with basically only a passageway wide enough for one person to pass through, and two dogs would lie in the passageway.

The two dogs were their precious babies, so they could not be pushed with a cart or stepped on.

The entire company had been converted from the boss’s old home, so the restroom was very old and small.

The water dispenser had a strange smell.

You had to bring your own toilet paper.

The office space was extremely small and crowded, and I would often bump into the drawers behind me.

The person training me was extremely busy; basically, he was the only one responsible for the design work.

As a result, he could not train me, and there were no design drafts for me to work on. I could only fold paper boxes.

When assigning design work, they did not say how long it needed to take. Since I thought there was no rush, I would take about 30 minutes to submit a simple draft.

The sales staff and the boss’s wife also did not mention that my design work was too slow or raise any other concerns.

I spent a day adjusting.

However, as soon as I started, I was assigned to do a thorough cleaning and spent the entire day cleaning.

Then, because the designer was too busy to assign me any work, I spent another day folding paper boxes.

I worked on a few drafts here and there.

In the end, I started work on Monday and was dismissed on Friday for being too slow. I only found out at the moment I was getting off work.

I was given absolutely no prior notice.

The boss’s wife and the sales staff are mother and daughter. They chat all day, although I do not know what they talk about after work.
