Workplace reviews and discussion: 實威國際股份有限公司

1. I’m in the sales department myself. The sales jobs I had before were basically very demanding: overtime was mandatory, and I also had to deal with clients and accompany supervisors to social engagements after work. At 實威, there is no such culture. The work pace is relatively stable, and there is almost no overtime. Most of the time, you can leave work on time, maintaining a balance between life and work. (In fact, most of this company’s clients are also office workers, so they won’t answer your calls after work either.)

2. As for the salary, it depends quite a bit on your previous work experience when determining your pay. Since this is a sales position, it mainly depends on how much you can increase your sales commissions. Given the workload, I don’t think the salary is too bad. However, clients are unlikely to make large purchases from you all at once. You have to cultivate each client, with the concept of treating everyone equally.

3. The supervisor is quite nice and won’t abandon you. Overall, they’re pretty good, and their attitude is also okay.

4. I’ll also briefly describe the job duties so everyone knows what to expect.

For sales, the work involves selling both software and hardware. Of course, the company provides comprehensive product training. The products are indeed fairly specialized, so you need to thoroughly understand your own products. There is a certain SOP to follow during work: you have to make cold calls, and there is a set amount of information to submit every week. The work intensity is not low, but because there is no overtime, everyone does their best to finish things during working hours. Therefore, if you are used to sales jobs with a very high degree of freedom, you may have trouble adapting at first. However, once I got used to it, I actually found it easier than all my previous sales jobs.

1. Although this is a sales position, the work is quite systematized. You must clock in and out properly, and there is no such thing as flexible working hours. This is very different from the sales jobs I had before. Some people couldn’t get used to it and resigned on their own.

2. Leaving work on time doesn’t mean the job isn’t demanding. There is a certain level of intensity, and it’s unlikely that you can slack off during working hours. You’ll be busy almost continuously until the end of the workday.

(The benefit is probably that time passes quite quickly.)

3. The company does not provide official vehicles, so you have to use your own car. For business trips, you submit the expenses to the company for reimbursement.
