Leaving work on time

I. Policies

Labor insurance is usually not enrolled on your first day of employment. It depends on the company’s mood and when they decide to send out the insurance information. Not only will late enrollment be overlooked, but you may also be charged for the entire month’s labor insurance premium. If you don’t check your enrollment records yourself, you may be taken advantage of without even knowing it. The key point is that when you raise this issue with the company, they may still treat it as a minor matter.

II. Work

(1) Responsibilities are not clearly divided, so other people’s tasks may also become yours. Some colleagues are not good at detail-oriented work; if you are detail-oriented, their work will become yours simply because the company thinks you are more careful.

(2) Work processes are made unnecessarily complicated. Something that could clearly be completed directly and only requires two people to handle is forced to involve a third person, turning the process into a triangle in which information is passed back and forth.

(3) Every meeting is about the same things. The content of a meeting may be almost the same as it was a month earlier and a month later. Each meeting lasts 1–1.5 hours. If you feel that being paid by the company to attend meetings is a good thing, then this might not be so bad.

(4) The same questions and issues will be repeatedly asked of you. Even if your daily work reports record your work status in detail, they will still ask you the same things repeatedly, and may even read your messages without properly responding.

(5) At first, you apply for an administrative position. Once you become familiar with the work, you will be asked to do business development, but the business commission they offer is... (Curious people can come and experience it for themselves.)

III. Work environment

(1) If you are not very sensitive to cleanliness and can accept an environment full of dust, lots of tiny fruit flies, and urine splashed on the toilet seat, you may be very well suited to this environment.

(2) The hardware and software are outdated. For example, the computer and telephone receiver are very quiet—so quiet that you may wonder whether your hearing is poor. The water dispenser filter is not replaced, yet they will tell you that it has been replaced. Even after reporting that the plastic inside the water dispenser has deteriorated and that the water has a plastic and strange taste, they will still tell you, “There’s no taste,” and that the water from the dispenser is safe to drink.
