Workplace reviews and discussion: 瑞嘉軟體科技股份有限公司

The company is fairly large, and there are free drinks and snacks.

1. New hires are often thrown into decade-old systems with tens of thousands of lines of code that are so outdated they stink, then put on the front line of development after only a few days of handover. There is not even any documentation. If you ask questions, you get scolded for not figuring it out yourself; if you misunderstand something and make a mistake, you get harshly berated for not asking first. Then, as part of the PUA, you are told that the problem is your own ability. In the end, more than a dozen new hires all leave within three months. **This is the norm**.

2. Juniors really do not learn much. The old systems left over from more than a decade ago can be summed up in one word: chaotic.

3. What people said below about the interview being one way and the reality after joining being another is true. The Scrum process is described as running like clockwork, but after joining, you discover that the process is so incomplete it is astounding. During the interview, they make it sound as if everything has been fully planned; in reality, it is a constant meteor shower of urgent changes. Hilarious.

4. The technical managers are constantly painting rosy pictures for upper management while repeatedly changing requirements. The specifications cannot be reconciled, but the deadlines remain the same, so overtime and rework are often required. It is a responsibility-based system with no overtime pay.

5. Because the company cannot recruit enough people, it has started raising its compensation. However, it seems completely unaware that, after the pandemic, the software industry outside the gambling sector has also begun raising its standards. It is still boasting that its salaries are among the highest in the industry.

6. Because China has banned gambling in recent years, the company's biggest source of revenue has declined, and many benefits that used to be available have gradually been reduced.
