Workplace reviews and discussion: 國泰金控_國泰金融控股股份有限公司

This is probably the most sophisticated part of how this whole system operates: there is no need to directly deny you; simply make you slowly doubt yourself, and that is enough.

Recently, I again saw the education and training expert Wang JiaX bring up the story of mentor Sol in a retrospective. The familiar formula remains the same: first, re-edit the past into a glowing retrospective, then turn other people's experiences into their own endorsement, and smoothly invoke a seemingly systematic circle from their former time at Taiwan Cooperative Bank. It is called succession, but it looks more like the precise allocation of resources and benefits; it is called inspiration, but it is really just expressing vague words in a way that makes everyone think 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 only after you truly commit do you gradually discover that it is more like an exquisitely packaged medicine bag, covered with claims about its effects while glossing over the 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 quantify other people's diligence; they are more honest than any moving account. Yet when you raise these questions, you are often steered toward believing that your understanding is flawed, and may 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 their rebuilding process, while the CTBC Brothers Elephants and Shin Kong are finding new ways to play amid change. By contrast, this place is like a team still trapped in old tactics: its rhythm is sluggish, its atmosphere stagnant, and the whole environment is permeated by an indescribable lifelessness.

Wang JiaX's methods are consistent: visions are announced in group chats at night without notice, and vacation time is endlessly eroded; it is called cultivation, but it looks more like a test of obedience. Promotion is slow, administrative procedures are lengthy without any visible improvement, and work is distributed unevenly, yet tasks are expected to be completed within unreasonable time limits. From Xing Ju Dian, Little Dragon Food, Tainan noodles, Liu Mama cold noodles, and Liu Family cold noodles, all the way to Dongyin Quick Knife, Wuji Stone Hot Pot, and Wanfang Ice Room, it may appear on the surface to show concern for people's lives and bring them closer together, but in practice it looks more like binding people firmly to the same rhythm, until even the space to catch their breath is completely exhausted.

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.
