Salary. Benefits are fairly good for Hualien.

Basic labor insurance, health insurance, 6% pension contribution, annual leave, year-end bonus, and bonuses for the three major holidays.

Salary is around NT$35,000.

The only advantage is that the company’s systems are not well established.

The boss likes to make grand promises and take petty advantages, and favors a supervisor with 30 years of tenure who likes to cause trouble.

(Drivers are instructed to bring back defective products that should have been scrapped. After removing the packaging, colleagues at the fruit market are asked to sell them individually. Alternatively, soybean products such as tofu and tofu pudding are taken out of the freezer and packaged at room temperature outside the storage area, with complete disregard for the food storage requirements.)

The company specializes in distributing and delivering expanded fresh foods, frozen and refrigerated products, processed foods, and other goods through various channels. No one cares about or follows the work-environment requirements that should be observed.

Office staff, warehouse personnel, and drivers—no one is willing to make changes to improve work efficiency.

The vast majority of the drivers (apart from two or three) are extremely selfish, have poor work habits, and cooperate poorly.

Warehouse staff (most of them just coast and drift; quite often they drag their feet and wait for others to help).

The company has significant food-safety problems. It allows warehouse workers and drivers conducting inspections to turn off the freezer power while handling goods, leave the freezer doors closed improperly during the process, or even leave them wide open, showing no concern whatsoever for the temperature of the storage environment.
