Workplace reviews and discussion: 新光影城股份有限公司

Suitable for those content to coast along.

The company is very poor—literally. The year-end bonus is reduced by three months’ worth for the probationary period, and then further deducted based on attendance. There is no clock-in system, and the supposed grace period for lateness is also a lie: as long as you are not exactly on time, they will ultimately deduct it from your year-end bonus. If they paid more than one month’s worth, that might be understandable, but in reality the amount is pitifully small. The year-end banquet was awful too; I ended up vomiting and having diarrhea afterward. The only time you get a raise is after the probationary period. As for annual salary adjustments, because supervisors also have to receive raises, it takes up too much of the budget, so the increases are tiny—500–1,000—as if they were doing you a favor. The supervisors here have all been around for more than ten years and are very good at coasting along. They keep dumping work down the chain, while specialists keep resigning. The HR manager never replaces them, goes home on time every day, and pretends not to see anything. I’ve never seen a well-known company that doesn’t even have staff handling internship or industry–academia subsidy programs. It’s ridiculous. But supposedly she didn’t graduate from a relevant field either; she was originally just a customer service representative. You can imagine what this company is like from top to bottom, haha.
