Workplace reviews and discussion: 惇聚國際股份有限公司

1. Most colleagues are fairly easy to get along with.

2. The office location is very convenient for transportation.

3. There are quite a few food options nearby.

4. Parking is convenient; there is a paid parking lot behind the company.

1. The company constantly changes its decisions, and the boss’s moods are unpredictable.

2. On the surface, it is a fashion brand agency, but in reality it operates with a very traditional industry mindset (a family-run business structure, closed-minded, with an unclear promotion system).

3. People are hired based on personal preferences; ability is of little use. You might as well learn how to flatter and deceive senior management who do not understand the business (an intern who stayed less than a year at a well-known advertising company can come here and take on a management-level position).

4. The company is extremely unfamiliar with the industry and operates entirely according to the boss’s personal preferences and arrogance (if you genuinely want to understand the fashion industry, joining this company will only be a detriment, not an advantage, because everything you learn here consists of incorrect ideas).

5. The salary is pitifully low.

6. Overtime hours cannot be converted into pay during the same month; they can only be exchanged for compensatory leave (whether you can actually take the leave is another matter).

7. If your duties require coordinating with vendors, congratulations—you will develop an impressive ability to haggle shamelessly. You can become notorious throughout the industry for squeezing cooperating vendors dry and cutting prices to the bone, ultimately getting blacklisted.

8. Because of work-related circumstances, if any products you come into contact with are damaged or dirty, you must pay compensation out of your own pocket (you can look up the average price of the company’s agency products—one item costs roughly how much?).

9. The company’s promotional sales events attract a complicated mix of people. There was once a theft at a sale in which goods worth several hundred thousand were stolen, and the company required all sales associates on duty to compensate for the full retail value (wouldn’t it be exciting to come to work and end up owing over a hundred thousand?).

10. The entire company is an outsider to the fashion industry (sales, marketing, public relations, and other areas are all laughable in the eyes of industry professionals). If you want to become one of the people everyone looks down on, feel free to join.
