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 described below absolutely aren’t meant to say that this company is bad, but rather to point out the company’s “bad apple.”
If you’re applying as an apprentice, watch out for someone with the surname Yu. From my very first day at work, he started trying to manipulate me—he showed no consideration whatsoever. I only realized after leaving that this was a horrifying 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 happens to be in a good mood and feels like talking to you. Oh, and the reason I’m saying this is that this industry has a senior-junior hierarchy, similar to the seniority system among nurses in hospitals. You must not offend the company’s “senior”—that person with the surname Yu. He looks careless and talks with lots of exaggerated claims. When you say one thing, he’ll argue back with ten. Having to spend nearly 10 hours of your workday with someone like this is painful. If you show even a little impatience or become emotional, he won’t show you any consideration either! He uses his seniority to ruthlessly suppress you and undermine your opportunities to grow. A huge part of the reason this company can’t recruit apprentices is definitely this bad apple’s fault. He drives people away, then complains that no one wants to come work there.
You think you’re there to learn technical skills, but in reality you’re competing with your senior 😊 He’ll manipulate and suppress you in all kinds of ways just to put you down. I don’t even 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 too naïve and thought I was simply coming to learn technical skills. Take care.
