．Very high salary
．Many opportunities to report directly to the boss and chat with him
．A daily meal allowance of NT$120 is provided. Each week, employees take turns ordering meals (everyone participates), either ordering together or buying their own meals and submitting receipts with the company’s tax ID for reimbursement.
．At the Zhongyue office, employees may have the opportunity to apply for an underground parking space for a car or scooter.
．Many activities—fun, interesting, and exciting. The boss occasionally calls on people to participate in external activities, held on both weekdays and weekends.
．Being hired immediately after the interview—those who understand, understand.
．There is a three-month probation period. At first, they said salaries would be adjusted after the probation period, but not only was there no proactive adjustment—you had to remind the boss yourself, and only then were you told it would be paid as a bonus.
．It is a family business with severe workplace bullying, office politics, and infighting. There is a lack of sound systems in every respect, and the company culture fundamentally fails to achieve “respect Heaven and love people.”
．Although the salary is very high, the turnover rate is extremely high, showing that even high pay cannot retain talent.
．Very unfriendly to newcomers, with some long-term employees being extremely self-important.
．Inefficient: There is a monthly meeting at the beginning of every month and a biweekly meeting in the middle. Each meeting lasts the entire day (so two days are lost each month). Everyone must prepare a PowerPoint presentation every time because the boss may call on anyone to present at any moment.
．Neither the office nor the factory hires dedicated cleaners; instead, everyone takes turns cleaning assigned areas each week.
．At more formal events, the boss expects female employees to attend wearing high heels.
．Strongly not recommended for women! If you are a woman who happens to be relatively attractive or likes to dress up, you may first need to learn how to skillfully avoid unexpected physical contact, because after drinking, the boss pretends to be drunk, becomes emotionally excited and emboldened, and may make unwanted advances—putting his arm around you, holding your hand, hugging you, or speaking at very close range (close enough for saliva to spray on you).
．In conclusion, to quote a colleague who stayed for nearly 10 years: This is a toxic company.
