For fieldwork, the company provides a company car and a business-use mobile phone. The company enjoys wining and dining.
A small family-owned business selling bathroom and plumbing equipment. One person is expected to do the work of three, so the job relies heavily on sales ability. All new employees need to memorize the company’s product information and prices. Whether working in the office or in the field, you need sales skills and the ability to develop new clients. You also have to do a lot of physical labor and act as a driver, taking supervisors all over other counties and cities. Every day, you must submit reports and write up forms explaining that day’s work. You often have to stay after work for meetings and discussions. Even when there is nothing important to discuss, there are still many meaningless meetings held after hours. You also frequently have to run personal errands for the boss. Employees are treated like servants and are often kept past the end of their shifts. There are also too many business social engagements, which often run very late. The pay is not high, and the performance bonuses are practically worthless. The boss keeps a very close eye on employees: in addition to requiring daily reports, they monitor the surveillance cameras constantly and use a location-tracking system on company vehicles. From time to time, employees are also required to submit reflections on their work. Working at this company lets you experience what it means to have no quality of life and the post-holiday blues. The pay is also very low. Not recommended!
