From a work perspective, most of the managers are still communicative and are quite willing to teach.
However, they often put their emotions before professionalism.
You’ll be more efficient if you first deal with their emotions—or observe them carefully beforehand.
If you’re good at manipulating emotions, or skilled at managing the emotions of those above you, then as long as you don’t expect a decent salary, I recommend joining this company.
Technically, they want to dabble in everything but simply don’t want to spend money; yet they’re willing to spend a fortune on renovations.
That said, this really is a strength—the place did look much better after the renovation.
Here’s a little secret about how to get the leaders to like you:
At this company, you need to make yourself look very busy—and make sure they see it.
Don’t handle things too quickly or efficiently; you should even work overtime for no reason.
Also remember to call the boss in the middle of the night.
Tell the boss you’re thinking about the company’s future and can’t sleep.
Say you’re thinking about it alone on a park bench.
Whatever the boss wants you to do, do it.
The grander the show, the better.
Then bluff your way through with something simple.
See? You’ve done it~
Don’t touch anything complicated.
As an aside:
Because the company is preparing to go public, the organization chart changes faster than software versions are updated.
The boss publicly said: “Intellinet lacks neither talent nor funding.”
But your salary probably won’t be adjusted much, and because of the low pay, employees in relevant positions come and go quickly.
They don’t really like following SOPs. There are always a bunch of little backdoors or special circumstances, and you absolutely won’t know about them unless you ask.
When you do ask whether the same arrangement can apply to you, you’ll discover that the rule has been canceled or changed.
When handling matters, they also often pull in the big boss directly to exert pressure, and then you’re expected to carry it out immediately.
Naturally, this increases the likelihood of something going wrong, after which the review will simply blame the executing staff for lacking ability.
Instead of making an effort to rely on standard procedures to reduce the likelihood of accidents, they just find someone to take the fall and kick the matter over to them. Naturally, that person leaves not long afterward.
They’re often not discussing how to solve problems, but thinking about how to cover them up.
A lot of the time, I wonder how this company still hasn’t been sued. The people handling the ritual offerings and prayers are truly impressive.
When a customer’s anger is about to break through the ceiling, some unknown force will make them calm down.
“Oh dear~ The money’s already been spent, and the system is already in use. They must be very busy right now, so just calm down for the moment.”
You have to write a whole bunch of work logs here, but dealing with the point system is also a hassle.
