Workplace reviews and discussion: 百達醫企業有限公司

None. The commute is also extremely inconvenient; the area around the company is basically wasteland.

1. The company violates the Labor Standards Act. When you work overtime on weekends, they will tell you to take compensatory leave on a 1:1 basis, but in fact weekend overtime should be paid at 1.33 times the regular wage. In addition to compensatory leave, they should also provide overtime pay. If you aren't afraid of being shortchanged, feel free to apply.

2. The company violates the Labor Standards Act. When you are late, they deduct not only your pay for the late period but also your perfect-attendance bonus (the perfect-attendance bonus is not additional pay; it is included in your basic salary). I have checked the Labor Standards Act, which stipulates that lateness cannot result in an additional deduction through the perfect-attendance bonus. If you aren't afraid of having money deducted arbitrarily, feel free to apply.

3. The boss's wife has the mindset of a typical exploitative employer. She likes employees to work overtime and handle matters on holidays. If an employee is actually taking a holiday, she gets unhappy. If you like devoting all your holidays to work, feel free to apply.

4. The entire company drives out the good and keeps the bad. The business department manager oversees multiple departments and treats herself like a chief operating officer, but in reality, her main experience is years of currying favor upward as a department-store sales clerk (the boss's wife really falls for this). She also badmouths employees' private lives behind their backs. Everyone in the company knows she has no professional expertise but is very good at currying favor and going out to eat with the boss's wife. If you are willing to be bossed around by someone unprofessional, feel free to apply.

5. The company environment is very cramped. The men's and women's restrooms are shared, which is extremely awkward, and you often have to hold your urine. If you think you have a very strong bladder, feel free to apply.

6. Once you go there, ask everyone how long they have worked there. You will find that, apart from those who curry favor with their supervisors, everyone else has been there less than six months or a year. Then you will understand why everyone knows they should escape. Capable people do not stay, but if you think you are extremely incapable, feel free to apply.

7. The boss is extremely stingy with employees. Employees have to take turns serving as the duty person, scrubbing toilets and taking out the trash. They basically treat employees like servants. I have encountered coworkers who stayed late to sort the trash and scrub the toilets without even applying for overtime pay. If you think you are sufficiently servile, feel free to apply.

8. If you can accept all of the above shortcomings, are sufficiently servile, and are desperately short of money, you can go.
