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 distributor, but in reality it operates with very traditional industry thinking (a family-run business structure, closed-minded, with an unclear promotion system).
3. People are hired based on personal preferences; having actual ability is useless. You might as well learn how to flatter people and deceive senior management who do not understand the business (an intern who worked at a well-known advertising agency for less than a year 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, joining this company will only hurt you rather than help you, because everything you learn here consists of incorrect concepts).
5. The salary is pitifully low.
6. Overtime hours cannot be converted into money 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 contacting and coordinating with suppliers, congratulations—you will develop an impressive ability to haggle shamelessly. You can bargain until you become notorious in the industry, squeeze suppliers dry, and drive them to the point where you end up on their blacklist.
8. Because of the nature of the work, if any products you handle are damaged or dirty, you have to pay for the loss out of your own pocket (you can look up the average price of a single item from the brands they distribute).
9. The company's promotional sales events attract a complicated mix of people. There was once a theft at a sale in which merchandise worth hundreds of thousands was stolen, and the company required all the sales associates on duty to reimburse the full retail price (having to pay over 100,000 just for showing up to work sounds exciting, right?).
10. The entire company is an outsider in the fashion industry. In the eyes of industry professionals, every aspect—from sales and marketing to public relations—is laughable. If you want to become one of the people everyone looks down on, welcome aboard.
