Wistron used to be very close by, in Building A, so it was very convenient to interview after work or sneak away from work for an interview.

The hiring department said that transferring from Wistron to Wistron NeWeb counts as an internal transfer, and company policy prohibits discussing salary; seniority is carried over. I also asked whether the bonus could continue to be based on my seniority at Wistron. The hiring department said they had never handled anyone from Wistron and did not know how to answer. A week later, I received a rejection letter. At least it was not a silent rejection. I hope this experience is helpful to Wistron employees.

No advantages to the interview.

The equipment job posting said: work four days, take two days off; regular daytime shifts were also available.

After I was contacted for an interview, HR interviewed me... and then told me on the spot, “Well, this position is no longer available, so would you consider working as a production line operator?”

I was thinking to myself... If there was no position, why did you ask me to come for an interview? Was it just to say hello? And now I’m supposed to consider being a production line operator?

Was this interview just a disguised interview for another position? I came all this way for nothing, and was even asked whether I would consider being directly hired as a production line operator...

Even if there is a major shortage of operators, you shouldn’t treat interviewees this way. It’s dishonest.

None

I really didn't expect to encounter such an absurd interviewer...

A certain manager at the Southern Taiwan Science Park plant first mispronounced my name, and then got almost every piece of information wrong. They kept insisting that I disclose my past salary and repeatedly implied that if I didn't, I wouldn't have a chance = =?? They kept asking stupid questions. Even though they were the one who approached me for the interview, they acted extremely self-important throughout the process.

The salary is fairly decent

The supervisor's attitude is really unpleasant. She is very impatient whenever you need to talk to her and often gives people sidelong glances.

She gets angry when she doesn't get enough sleep and is quick-tempered.

Dinner on the night shift is really terrible; it's always what the day shift left behind.

In the Quality Assurance Department, OBA staff are expected to teach, but they do not teach.

After looking at PCB boards for a month, they still said I lacked the experience to work the night shift.

They never teach anything, yet still say I lack experience.

When looking at a PCB board, I cannot make any sense of it, and every board has to be inspected.

If I do not inspect them, I will be asked why I am not looking at them.

If another station finds a problem and I want to understand what the problem is,

I am also told that I never look at the boards.

I also suggested that I wanted to learn more and wanted to learn IPQC, but there has been no follow-up for a long time.

Other stations are either very boring or have coworkers who are very talkative.

The best station is the Packaging Department.

The company is almost entirely staffed by dispatched workers.

In the end, because I was leaving the job, I was forced to stay one extra day before I could leave.

I said that I could not, but they said my attitude was very bad.

It is really just terrible.

Unless someone likes boring, mindless work

Inherits Wistron’s systems, including 14 days of leave, and receives both Wistron NeWeb and Wistron benefits—double the benefits.

The benefits are pretty good, with quite a few activities to participate in, and the office snacks are also decent.

There is an employee stock ownership plan, but whether you get it depends on luck.

You can learn quite a lot, so it’s suitable for developing your skills.

Inherits Wistron’s systems, including many bad habits; some people can even get promoted without doing any work.

You have to send a daily report and attend a scrum every day, but it isn’t agile at all and is a huge waste of time.

Overtime pay is available, but you need your supervisor’s approval to claim it. Usually, they ask you to take compensatory leave instead; if your supervisor doesn’t approve it, you’re expected to treat it as self-study and unpaid volunteer work.

New hires are advised to come only if they are already highly skilled. There is no training system, and some people are very bad at managing others—they just tell you to Google it yourself.

Almost all colleagues are young and easy to get along with, but most people in supervisor positions are difficult.

Inherits Wistron’s system: overtime can be reported and converted into compensatory leave, which is converted into money at the end of the year. However, if the higher-ups happen to review your records and think you reported too much, they may force you to take the leave.

The supervisors have no management ability. Coordination between departments, and even within the same department, has to be handled by junior R&D staff themselves. The only management they know is holding a morning meeting every day or writing a daily report. They are extremely stingy about business-trip expenses, and often one R&D staff member has to help oversee several projects while away.
