After all, the Avengers need teamwork, while S Company seems to need a management overhaul. 😑
You join under the name of X帆 Company, only to experience a workplace survival reality show involving multiple layers of outsourced engineers. All I can say is: even if the Avengers came, they probably couldn’t save this kind of management culture. 🙄
The most memorable person was HR Lynn, who handled complaints with extraordinary patience—so much patience that she would relentlessly press for details while deliberately obscuring the complaint itself. She said that everything would be kept confidential and that no one would know it was you, but the actual investigation would let the relevant parties know. That so-called confidentiality was probably “limited anonymity”! In the end, things not only failed to improve but actually got worse. 🤡
When problems arise, they never answer directly and always respond to something else; yet when something happens to other employees stationed at different locations, the company seems to have no idea at all. Management information is less stable than a YouBike, and decisions ricochet more unpredictably than a super ball. Pay particular attention to Jack, Stanley, and James. 🎾
The company places great emphasis on processes, yet managers are the ones who follow them the least, delaying approvals until the last minute. Meetings come one after another; besides the weekly regular meeting, there are all kinds of anonymous meetings. Important work never gets finished, like a deep-fried pork chop—tough and difficult to chew—and in the end, you still get criticized for your time management. Managers assign tasks according to their mood, lose control and loudly berate people in public, yet cannot necessarily identify the problem specifically.
New-hire training is even more remarkable: after teaching something once, they expect you to figure it out yourself, and then find you annoying when you ask questions. Senior employees may not be willing to mentor others, but they are very good at assigning blame when something goes wrong. The company’s image is packaged as grandly as a Boeing aircraft, while its actual internal management is like an airplane caught in turbulence. ✈️
The salary and benefits are also deeply moving (moving enough to make you cry 😭): high demands, low pay, and few benefits. Performance reviews depend on whether the manager likes you; apparently, being good at saying pleasing things matters more than being capable at the job. Some long-serving full-time employees may even receive worse treatment than new hires or hourly workers working the same number of hours.
The most ironic thing is that the complaint mechanism, management systems, and employee care can all be packaged beautifully, yet when something actually goes wrong, there is no concrete improvement to be seen.
The company should get its internal management in order before talking about its corporate image.
