Meeting performance targets allows you to earn commissions.

The salary listed on the job website differs from what is stated during the interview. In some cases, if performance targets are not met, the base salary is even deducted. Since the store is open on holidays, store sales staff also need to take turns working overtime on holidays. The lunch break is from 12:30 to 14:00, and store staff take turns going to eat.

New office environment (but there are an endless number of mice to catch⋯⋯⋯)

Nice restroom

Friendly colleagues

The company banquet is fun (if there is one)

The HR person acts like they are above everyone else and is extremely arrogant

Whenever you need to trouble them with an inquiry, they only respond depending on their mood

Salaries are paid on the 10th; if it falls on a holiday, payment is postponed until the end of the next working day, and it is possible that the salary still will not be credited even after work

The pay is monthly, but if the first month is less than a full month, it is calculated on a daily-wage basis

Convenient transportation—the company building is next to a metro exit, and the office is clean, bright, and tidy.

All the expected benefits are provided, with stable and punctual working hours.

The marketing planning work appears to have a complete system, and the supervisor paints a perfect picture. During the interview, they explicitly said there was no so-called probationary period and that both parties only needed to agree on the work terms. However, after joining, I was required to sign a probationary contract first. Although the position was salaried monthly, the pay for new employees who had worked less than a month was calculated on a daily basis, excluding holidays and so on; employees who worked fewer than seven days were not entitled to any salary or bonuses.

The salary structure and benefits were not transparent enough. During the interview, they glossed over the important details, and only after joining did I discover the issue of underreporting salaries for labor and health insurance. A company that quibbles over every little detail probably cannot offer much of a deal either—what a waste of time. I recommend clarifying your salary structure before joining, especially if you are not in a sales role with commission-based bonuses; there may be some surprises. Suitable for those looking to coast until retirement or for fresh graduates who simply follow instructions... The benefits are all there, but only to the extent that they are better than nothing.

1. The colleagues are easy to get along with.

2. The office environment is modern (in a building integrated with an MRT station).

Other than that, basically...呵呵

The head of the Marketing Department is very good at talking. It’s such a shame they aren’t in sales.

If, during the interview, you get the impression that this company/department has a lot of potential, is open and diverse, and that everything is great,

then you really need to be careful. Let me play you a song: “The future you talked about before~ wasn’t this kind of future~”

They have a strong need for control and don’t really let subordinates coordinate with other departments, so cross-departmental communication is not smooth.

Basically, there is no complete marketing plan or direction. If the manager says we need to do A, everyone does A; if they suddenly say we need to do B, then we do B.

Usually, things are done first and discussed later. If there are no results OR the direction is wrong, they make a dramatic U-turn, scrap everything, start over, and then repeat the loop endlessly.

In addition, the manager is extremely busy and is often away from their desk.

If something needs to be reviewed or approved, you usually have to wait a long time. Even reminding them to sign a leave form makes them impatient.

As a result, the entire department is often the target of HR’s reminders and complaints before payroll is processed.

We don’t usually work overtime, but we quite often do pointless work or don’t know what we’re doing.

They frequently get caught up in meaningless minor issues, which gradually leads to mental exhaustion.

If you want to learn things, here you may only learn how to manage upward and write copy.

You won’t be able to learn other practically useful skills, so think it over.

The company environment is good.

I applied for a programmer position, but at the interview they asked whether I wanted to work as a network administrator instead. We barely discussed any programming technologies. The company was vastly different from those that normally recruit programmers, and they did not mention the salary or benefits at all. This interview was simply a waste of both parties’ time.
