Punctual working hours
Leave follows the Labor Standards Act—the longer you work, the better your leave gets
On typhoon days, you can claim taxi fares for commuting to work
Not much overtime
The salary is very fixed, and raises are small
To transfer between departments or be promoted to section manager, you have to transfer to another store
Job responsibilities change at any time depending on the person, so capable employees being overworked is normal. Senior staff are all very good at passing the buck in order to survive
Bonuses can change without warning: monthly bonuses become quarterly bonuses, and the targets keep being set higher and higher. They clearly have no intention of paying them, and the actual amount received is also very small
If you want to work here, think it through carefully: your base salary is basically the money you will be earning in the future. Make sure you can accept that before joining. Also, every year when everyone discusses year-end bonuses, it is very painful, because the two words “year-end bonus” do not exist in our dictionary.
If you have joined and want to work until retirement without seeking promotion or transferring stores, learn how to slack off from colleagues who have been here for more than a decade. After hanging around long enough, at least you will have annual leave!
Every day you move goods for customers, only to see the next day that the products have been put back in their original category and need to be moved again. Or you move goods for customers and, a few days later, see them returned in a battered condition. This is everyday life here; you have to be able to take it in stride to last long.
Changing shifts is exhausting
