The boss is a woman and a very kind, nice person. Sometimes she treats us to snacks and drinks, and the company also covers lunch on workdays, so you don’t have to pay out of pocket. Compared with other places, it’s very generous and a good company. The drawbacks mentioned below absolutely aren’t meant to say this company is bad, but rather concern the company’s “rotten apple.”
If you’re applying as an apprentice, watch out for someone with the surname Yu. From my first day at work, he started trying to PUA me without holding back. I only realized after resigning that this was a terrifying experience. He might sometimes chat and joke with you, but that’s not because he wants to get to know you—it’s because he happens to be in a good mood and feels like talking to you. Oh, and the reason I say this is that this industry has a hierarchy between seniors and juniors, like the seniority system among nurses in hospitals. You must not offend the company’s “senior”—that is, the person with the surname Yu. He looks cocky and flippant, constantly makes exaggerated claims, and whenever you say one thing, he argues back with ten. Having to spend nearly ten hours a day at work with someone like this is painful. If you show even a little impatience or get emotional, he won’t show you any courtesy either! Under the guise of seniority, he ruthlessly suppresses you and squashes your opportunities to grow. This company definitely fails to recruit apprentices largely because of this rotten apple. He drives people away and then complains that nobody wants to come work here.
You think you’re here to learn technical skills, but in reality you’re competing with your senior 😊 He’ll mess with you in all sorts of ways and use PUA tactics to put you down—he just wants to keep you beneath him. 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 yourself for how to deal with this rotten apple. I was simply too naïve and thought I was only coming to learn technical skills. Take care, everyone.
