The boss is a woman and a really nice person. Sometimes she treats us to snacks and drinks, and the company also covers lunch at work, so you don’t have to pay out of pocket. Compared with other places, it’s very generous and a good company. The cons I’m going to mention absolutely do not mean that this company is bad; they’re about a certain “bad apple” at the company.
If you’re applying as an apprentice, watch out for someone whose surname is Yu. From my very first day at work, he started trying to manipulate me—he showed no courtesy. I only realized after leaving the company that this was a terrifying experience. Sometimes he may chat and joke with you, but that’s not because he wants to get to know you; it’s because he’s in a good mood and feels like talking to you. Oh, and the reason I say this is that this industry has a seniority system, like the senior-junior system in hospitals. You must not offend the “senior” at this company—the one with the surname Yu. He looks carefree and talks full of exaggerated claims; whenever you say one sentence, he’ll contradict you with ten. Having to spend nearly 10 hours of work each day with someone like this is painful. If you show even a little impatience or become emotional, he won’t go easy on you either! Using his seniority as a pretext, he will mercilessly suppress you and erase your opportunities to grow~ A large part of the reason this company can’t recruit apprentices is definitely this bad apple. He drives people away and then complains, “Why does no one want to come here?”~
You think you’re here to learn technical skills, but in reality you’re competing with your senior 😊 All kinds of manipulation and suppression are intended to push you down. I don’t know how many people he drove away before me, but he won’t tell you. If you really want to come, prepare in advance for how to deal with this bad apple. I was simply too naive and thought I was only coming to learn technical skills. Take care, everyone.
