Workplace reviews and discussion: 繼茂橡膠工業股份有限公司

The training is very comprehensive, and the salary is considered to be in line with market standards.

(But the salary is split into many different categories, so the basic salary is the minimum wage. This makes a big difference to labor and health insurance contributions!!)

It is a very good place for recent graduates to learn and gain experience.

Most people move on to better companies after working here for 1–2 years~

After all, it is a publicly listed company, so the HR training is really comprehensive,

and you can also learn the SAP system!

This is a significant advantage when negotiating salary for future job changes, and it makes for a good résumé entry.

I recommend that recent graduates come here to learn for a year, then move on to somewhere better!

After all, without special connections, promotion opportunities here are very limited~

EX: The boss’s child returned after studying abroad and became a TEAM LEADER in less than four years,

managing senior sales staff who had worked here for more than ten years. That is quite a distinctive approach, hahaha

Most of the people who joined at the same time as me have left.

Most of those who stayed either got married and had children,

or are distant relatives of the boss or friends and relatives of senior executives.

It is a textbook family business: connections matter more than ability.

Those without connections get stuck with the worst assignments and the most difficult customers XD

Almost every department has family members in it. Don’t assume that only people with the surname Nian are members of the royal family.

Some are children of distant relatives, while others are daughters-in-law from a senior manager’s family—all of them are brought in.

The year-end bonus is about one month’s salary, and raises do not exceed NT$1,000.

On typhoon days off, you may be required to deduct annual leave.

It is rare to leave work on time, but overtime pay is handled fairly honestly.

The company cafeteria food is terrible, like feeding pigs. A tiny fish the size of a palm has to be shared among several people.

Meanwhile, the boss and managers get lavish meals. Whatever happened to weathering difficult times together?

During lunch break, an announcement and bell are played 5–10 minutes early to wake everyone up,

so the actual lunch break is less than one hour.

However, there are many club activities, in-house training courses, company outings, and department activities.

It is very suitable for recent graduates without busy family responsibilities who want to learn and participate in various activities.

.

For sales assistants, private-university graduates are paid only the minimum wage, while national-university graduates get an additional NT$1,000–3,000.

Sales staff earn approximately NT$5,000–8,000 more than sales assistants (because most of them work indoors and do not have to travel outside).

Managers treat sales assistants and sales staff extremely differently—like a caste system.

Sales assistants are only allowed to drink tea bags from T世家.

Only sales staff and customers are allowed to drink TenRen tea bags.

When customers visit, sales assistants have to drive out to buy premium boxed meals, snacks, and drinks.

Sales staff will demand that obviously excessive amounts of food be purchased.

After the customers leave, the sales staff first pack up and take away unopened food for themselves,

then tell the sales assistants to collect the trash and clean up the food waste. They are really “smart.”

I recommend having the determination to endure this kind of treatment before applying for a sales assistant position~
