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-run business structure, closed-off, with unclear promotion制度)
3. People are hired based on personal preferences; being capable is useless. You might as well learn how to flatter and deceive senior executives who do not understand the business (an intern who stayed less than a year at a well-known advertising agency can come here and take a position at manager level)
4. Extremely unfamiliar with the industry, operating entirely according to the boss's personal preferences and arrogance (if you genuinely want to understand the fashion industry, joining this company will only count against you, not benefit you, because everything you learn here consists of incorrect concepts)
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 mystery)
7. If your duties require you to contact and coordinate with vendors, congratulations—you will develop an utterly shameless ability to slash prices. You can become notorious throughout the industry, squeeze your partner vendors dry, cut prices to the bone, and get yourself blacklisted.
8. Because of work-related reasons, if any products you handle are damaged or dirty, you have to pay compensation out of your own pocket (you can look up how much an average agency product costs)
9. The company's event sales 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 listed price (Having to pay over a hundred thousand just for showing up to work sounds exciting, doesn't it?)
10. The entire company is a fashion-industry outsider (sales, marketing, public relations, etc.); every aspect looks ridiculous to industry professionals. If you want to become one of the people they look down on, come on in.
