Large company; it won’t go under.

1. The product department works overtime without overtime pay.

2. The bonus calculation is not transparent.

3. There is a 1.5-hour lunch break, but in practice you leave work half an hour later.

4. The company is extremely traditional. Employees have to wear uniforms, and the HR department acts like a uniform-inspection squad, conducting inspections from time to time. Even on Fridays, when casual clothes are permitted, attire is still inspected. If you are found to be noncompliant, your year-end bonus will be deducted. Strangely, the company operates under a “one country, two systems” arrangement: senior employees in the Marketing and IT departments are allowed to wear casual clothes.

5. Each department operates like a small company, and the bonus calculation differs across departments.

6. Office staff have flexible working hours, but supervisors hint that you should arrive early.

7. The workplace appears harmonious on the surface, but there is infighting and factionalism.
