Interview questions:
1. What animals do you like? (To assess personality; personally, I feel this leans toward subjective assumptions.)
2. What software are you proficient in? (Including programming languages; list three.)
3. What are your deal-breakers?
Each side asks three questions.
The questions were very direct, and they seemed very concerned about whether people are easy to get along with. The position was advertised as a programmer and AI engineer, but the actual compensation was not as good as stated on 104, and the work content was not related to AI. The interviewer did not know how to use Google Meet. The workplace and the registered business address were different. There appeared to be only three male managers in the office, including the interviewer. Before the interview, all of the company's job postings on 104 suddenly disappeared... My intuition was that something seemed strange about this company... The interviewer made subjective judgments about people (you can draw this out by asking indirect questions)... Personally, I felt it was not quite normal, so I decided to leave first and think about it later.

The HR person said he didn’t know how to use Google Meet and asked me to send him the link. I sent it, and after joining Google Meet, he said it didn’t have a Google icon. Then he asked whether I wanted to schedule the next interview time??? The person had already joined Google Meet, so why was he making up nonsense there??? Then he started saying, “As your future supervisor, you don’t have the ability to lead a technology novice like me.” I hadn’t even joined the company yet, and I was already disgusted by the emotional manipulation. I decisively kept my distance.

Pros
It’s very easy to coast here. Do whatever you want for your own amusement; if anyone asks, just give the standard three-no-one answer: can’t do it, don’t want to do it, and won’t do it—there’s nothing at all. It’s perfect for a trashy retirement home: a collection of deadbeats, all coasting and having fun together.
Cons
A textbook bottom-tier contract manufacturing plant. Departments have no clear division of authority, and everyone does their own thing. The people at the top are just a bunch of brokers. The company’s management only talks about managing things; in reality, they have no idea how to manage. Staying here too long will completely destroy your values and turn you into an incompetent idiot. There’s a pile of illogical, absurd ways of doing things, treating right as wrong and wrong as right. Anyone capable or wanting to grow should absolutely not join—this is definitely a step backward, going from university back to kindergarten level. On the other hand, if you want to coast and retire in place, hurry up and join—it’s incredibly comfortable and easy. Once you’re in, you can just drool all day. Pay is average, neither particularly high nor particularly low (compared with small and medium-sized companies).
The company has no rules or systems; everything is decided by force. Communication between departments relies on bullying and acting like thugs. Whoever is more aggressive and has the bigger fists wins. Threatening to bring in outsiders to handle things is normal. Management also routinely smooths things over and avoids trouble instead of dealing with it; they pat everyone on the head and let the matter disappear without a trace. This company is unbelievably rotten. To survive here, you really have to be a thug and a deadbeat.
Vietnam-assigned Product Development Specialist
1. Managers are willing to teach, the leadership style is open, and they are also willing to help resolve issues when problems arise with other departments.
2. The atmosphere within the department is harmonious.
1. The salary for an overseas assignment is average.
2. The salary is paid in foreign currency, and the exchange rate used by the company gives you a clear understanding every month of what foreign exchange losses are.
3. The division of responsibilities among departments is uneven; capable departments end up taking on much more work.
4. Regarding foreigners’ salary income tax and labor insurance in Vietnam, HR does not proactively explain the details clearly. You have to check your salary statement yourself to find out how much has been deducted—and it is genuinely a lot.
5. After paying into Vietnam’s employee welfare fund, employee benefits are determined by the company.
6. Regarding the pandemic, the company may first need to understand what “planning ahead” means.
7. Whether the boss is generous is hard to say.
Working on an overseas assignment is tough. Your salary may decrease for no apparent reason because of foreign exchange losses or temporary company decisions. Whether this job is worth investing in may be something you have to experience for yourself.
General accounting staff.
The salary level is a little over 40,000.
The accounting supervisor's abilities are extremely poor,
with even the most basic accounts organized in a complete mess,
shifting responsibility to each other for accounts they cannot explain,
and there is nothing to learn.
