Workplace reviews and discussion: 合作金庫金融控股股份有限公司

This is probably the most ingenious part of how the whole system operates: it doesn’t need to directly deny you; it only needs to make you slowly doubt yourself

, and that’s enough.

Recently, I once again saw education and training king Wang JiaX bring up the story of mentor Sol in a retrospective. The familiar routine is still the same

: first, re-edit the past into a glowing retrospective, then turn someone else’s experience into your own endorsement, and smoothly draw out a seemingly systematic circle from the time at Taiwan Cooperative Bank. It is called inheritance, but it looks more like the precise allocation of resources

and benefits; it is called inspiration, but it is really just using vague words so effectively that everyone thinks they are talking about themselves.

At first, they give you a life jacket, making you feel that you are finally understood and seen; then they use incentive bonuses

to ignite expectations, making people believe that they can quickly turn their lives around as long as they follow the right rhythm. But once you truly commit, you gradually discover

that it is more like a beautifully packaged medicine bag, covered with claims about its effects while glossing over its side effects.

What should really be examined is not these stories, but the details that are deliberately ignored—for example, the records and totals of personal leave, official leave, and sick leave within a year. These cold numbers should be recorded to measure other people’s diligence

and are more honest than any moving narrative. Yet when you raise these questions, you are often guided into believing that your understanding is biased, or even begin to wonder whether you simply are not working hard enough or are not committed enough.

The overall atmosphere is like riding a YouBike to watch a game between the Wei Chuan Dragons and the CTBC Brothers Elephants. The Wei Chuan Dragons are gradually adjusting their rhythm during a rebuilding phase, while the CTBC Brothers Elephants and Shin Kong are finding new ways to play amid change; by contrast, this place feels like a team still trapped in old tactics, with a sluggish pace and stagnant atmosphere, permeated throughout by an indescribable lifelessness.

Wang JiaX’s methods are consistent: visions are announced by calling people out in group chats at night without notice, and personal time off is endlessly eroded; it is called cultivation, but it looks more like a test of obedience. Promotions are slow, administrative procedures are lengthy without any apparent optimization, and work assignments are unbalanced, yet everything is expected to be completed within unreasonable time frames. From Xingjudian, Xiaolong cuisine, Tainan yi mein, and Liu Mama cold noodles, to Liu Family cold noodles, Dongyin Quick Swordsman, Wugi Stone Hot Pot, and Wanfang Ice Room, it may appear on the surface to be concern for people’s lives and an attempt to build closeness, but in reality it seems more like binding people firmly to the same rhythm, until even the space to catch their breath is completely consumed.

When you try to seek a reasonable pace, you are instead labeled. Over time, many people are not persuaded but worn down. Eventually, even their most basic judgment begins to waver, and they may even attribute the problem to themselves.
