A self-proclaimed highly senior marketing person came to conduct the interview, repeatedly claiming to be very senior—so senior that I thought they were about to die. Throughout the process, they kept using PUA tactics—high-level PUA tactics. It felt as though I had come to Hsinchu Science Park, with the same condescending, belittling attitude as KP. They said they didn't know any technology, looked down on people for having previously earned low salaries, and even asked about my family situation. The fact that I didn't fall out with them shows I have an exceptionally good temper. This is not some good company worth staying at. They also said that AI will beat you. I wanted to ask: Have you asked Jensen Huang? Ridiculous. They really look down on people.
.The colleagues are easy to get along with, and the overall atmosphere is harmonious
.The boss gives gifts to employees’ children
.Because the clients are government agencies, the PM sometimes can’t turn down urgent requests, so the project team has to work overtime together
.Depending on the client’s situation, the Line group chat sometimes goes off on holidays, and it usually needs to be resolved quickly
.Honestly, I think the team should have been expanded long ago
There are only about 20 people in the company. Fortunately, everyone has a great personality and is easy to get along with.
Most of the projects here are commissioned through government tenders (national scenic areas account for the majority). Preparing tender proposals is hard work, and the production schedule is often a little shorter than expected—which is also one of the reasons for the frequent overtime. However, the websites produced are all excellent, and it is very rewarding to be involved in them.
As long as the company meets its annual performance target, employees can participate in an overseas company trip the following year. The company subsidizes most of the travel expenses. People who enjoy traveling abroad and are willing to work hard should be very happy here.
To meet the annual performance target, you generally need to win bids for and complete around 6–8 projects a year. Including maintenance projects renewed under contract, you need to complete approximately 12–15 projects in total each year. Personally, I find it quite exhausting, but the rewards for the hard work (= frequent overtime) are the salary, year-end bonus, and overseas company trip. Some people think it is worth it, while others do not.
The receptionist is a beauty.
Are the drawbacks not allowed to be left blank? Please refer to the text above for the drawbacks.
1. The colleagues are very nice (although quite a few of them have probably changed by now)
2. Taking leave is relatively easy
3. A shoulder and neck massage once a month
The following reflects the actual situation when I was employed there.
1. There was no overtime pay at all. Overtime on holidays could be exchanged for compensatory leave, but it had to be requested in advance. However, recently the company seems to have been caught during a labor inspection, so employees now have to choose between overtime pay (if overtime pay is chosen, the project bonus will be reduced) and compensatory leave.
2. The company's project groups would keep ringing and assigning work on weekday evenings or days off (70% of it required immediate handling).
3. The company is very much "the customer is king," readily agreeing to customers' demands that were outside the contract, leaving understaffed employees to work overtime.
4. There was an unlimited-responsibility system, and monthly working hours could easily exceed 190 hours.
5. The salary was not high, and there was virtually no increase with promotions.
