Workplace reviews and discussion: 商智資訊股份有限公司

There is training, but it is not very good. I’m not sure whether HR is trying to muddy the waters.

Here, I participated in a project to design wealth management and investment software, covering market analysis, warrants, account opening, and performance. Although the team was full of enthusiasm and had a certain level of technical expertise, problems frequently arose in project management and practical execution. What impressed me most was the atmosphere of cooperation among team members—it was practically like a group of students making a racket in a cram school or computer lab. No one was willing to take genuine responsibility; they always pushed the hot potato onto someone else. There was also a group scheduled to take over in April.

This work environment not only caused the project’s progress to stagnate for a time, but also lowered the morale of the entire team. In particular, project management lacked clear planning and effective communication, and much of the time everyone was simply passing the buck. For example, some people only knew how to take screenshots and forward them, lacking logical thinking, and their way of working was extremely chaotic, making it impossible for the project to proceed according to plan. Although I tried several times to propose improvements, I never received an effective response. Worse still, supervisors would sometimes evade responsibility by saying, “That’s not my responsibility,” which made people feel even more discouraged. In the end, the project was not completed on schedule. Later, when I talked about it with others, it felt like returning to school and sharing with young people: experience is not something that can easily be replicated. Every challenge and setback provides nourishment for growth, but you still need to choose the right people, things, and circumstances.
