There is no reasonable system in place; the company is entirely governed by individual discretion.
There are no payslips. Salaries are not discussed, confirmed, and agreed upon by both parties before being paid, so you never know how much you will receive each month.
The leave system is chaotic. Even when taking leave according to company policy, your salary may still be deducted.
The communication style tends to focus on pointing out mistakes or adding requirements rather than actually solving problems.
The restroom has poor soundproofing.
Cockroaches often appear at the office.
Many work arrangements are made at the last minute, with no planning.
You need to handle many tasks beyond what was discussed during the interview or listed in the job posting.
The boss often forgets what they have said or done, which is somewhat troublesome.
Management needs improvement. Supervisors are often unable to keep track of work progress and details.
The atmosphere among colleagues is subtle and awkward.
Some coworkers care a lot about money and other colleagues' personal matters.
You need to be careful about your privacy when using company computers, as there is a possibility that private accounts you log into may be snooped on.
The company's accounting work is influenced by personal emotions, with little acceptance of different ideas or viewpoints. Everything is treated as simply right or wrong, with no room for discussion. Discussions mostly take the form of blame and criticism.
The above is based entirely on personal experience. Circumstances vary from person to person and position to position, so this is for reference only~
