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 mood is unpredictable
2. On the surface, it is a fashion brand agency, but in reality it has very traditional industry thinking (a family-business structure, closed-minded, with an unclear promotion system)
3. People are hired based on personal preferences; ability is useless. You might as well learn how to flatter people and deceive senior executives who do not understand the business (an intern who did not last a year at a well-known advertising agency can come here and hold a position at the managerial level)
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, working here will only hurt rather than help, because everything you learn 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 a whole other mystery)
7. If your job requires contacting and coordinating with vendors, congratulations—you will develop an exceptional talent for shamelessly haggling. You can cut prices so aggressively that you become notorious in the industry, drain your partner vendors dry, and haggle them down to the bone, getting blacklisted.
8. Because of work-related contact with products, if any goods are damaged or soiled, you have to pay compensation out of your own pocket (you can look up the average price of one of the agency's products)
9. The company's promotional sale events attract a complicated mix of people. There was once a theft at a sale event involving goods worth several hundred thousand, and the company required all sales associates on duty to compensate for the full retail value (Coming to work only to have to pay over a hundred thousand—exciting, right?)
10. The entire company is simply made up of outsiders to the fashion industry. In areas such as sales, marketing, and public relations, industry professionals find everything about it laughable. If you want to become one of the people others look down on, welcome aboard.
