Workplace reviews and discussion: 仁舟社會企業股份有限公司

You are provided with an extremely old computer

1. When transferring assets upon resignation, there are office desks, chairs, and mobile cabinets. Who on earth would want these?

2. Management only talks about which companies they used to work for, how many years they worked, how many people they managed, and how they did everything, yet they do not even understand the most basic requirement of terminating labor and health insurance when an employee resigns.

3. When receiving an offer, make absolutely sure to discuss and clarify the scope of work in writing; otherwise, tasks unrelated to the position will also be forced on you.

4. Employees are forced to work stalls on holidays without overtime pay and can only take compensatory leave, including national holidays. This already violates the Labor Standards Act, yet they still proclaim in meetings that the company does not do anything illegal.

5. People with ideas will be rejected because the general manager says she is the one who understands the brand best, and everyone must obey her.

6. Company announcements have always been verbal only, with nothing in writing. Things change at will, with no consistency.

7. Those with actual manufacturing experience who understand processes should seriously consider this. This company does not have proper procedures, and rework happens especially often.

8. The general manager only promotes the fact that she introduced an ERP system, but it is not used properly; purchased modules are unused, rendering the ERP essentially useless.

9. The job bank listing says applicants must have high stress tolerance, because they must endure the general manager’s sarcastic remarks, threats of dismissal for poor performance, and constant targeting.

10. Working here means constantly having to applaud. If you do not clap, the general manager will even ask why you are not applauding.

11. Work is done without prior planning. Products are developed without market research, based instead on the fact that the general manager’s own mother uses this material.

12. Most products are not designed in-house; existing products from mainland Chinese manufacturers are imported and slightly modified. Can this really be considered “designing products that combine practicality and a sense of design”?

13. Staff turnover is high. Very few employees have worked here for more than a year; far more people stay for only three months or half a year than complete a full year.

14. A senior manager said the shareholders are Buddhist devotees, so employees must be careful not to make mistakes that cause extra expenses. Yet when the senior manager goes out to the bank, they take a taxi.

15. The amount of the year-end bonus depends on whether the general manager likes you. The evaluation form is merely a formality; even those who receive a year-end bonus do not get half a month’s salary.

16. If you feel extremely hungry and have a large appetite but can never seem to eat your fill, come join us and eat the biscuits provided by the company.
