Read the community guidelinesHaving QA is awesome!!!!
Snacks and drinks have gone up to 60~ The growth is astonishing
There are quite a few, as seen below
The technical team works well together
I heard the HR manager, reportedly the company’s biggest problem, is messing things up again, haha
The office is spacious.
The office does not have OA partitions; I don't like this type of seating.
None
A company that claims its employees are its assets
More than a year after the pandemic broke out, it still had not prepared alcohol disinfectant or taken any pandemic-prevention measures
The top boss is currently inside the office and still does not wear a mask
Only after a serious outbreak recently did it want to buy alcohol disinfectant and other sanitation supplies
When asked about the progress, all they can say is, "The items are still in transit."
Employees can only work in a high-risk environment, and WFH is not allowed
Someone even said that the air-conditioning filters can filter out clean air (?!), asking everyone to rest assured
There is neither a safety plan nor any preparation; they tell employees to "do everything humanly possible and leave the rest to fate"
Colleagues get along well with one another
Many of the benefits can only be taken as a reference
There are many demands; regarding the schedule, you’ll know once you join
When providing benefits or so-called incentives, they drag things out for at least three months
They often tell everyone to weather the difficulties together
When you ask your supervisor, they’ll tell you to ask the boss, or say it’s still under discussion
The company specializes in meteorite development
They cut costs in every way; for commonly used tools, people with various needs have to find their own resources
Announcements from upper management have never been consistent
One rule the day before, then a new rule the next day
And let me say sorry to you again :)
There are English classes.
When work is busy, they nevertheless force people to attend classes by saying “you’ll be charged if you don’t attend English class,” and deduct money without informing or warning them in advance. A benefit has turned into pressure. Are we supposed to work and rush projects, or attend English class??? It really puts people in a difficult position.

The game rules aren't explained clearly—how are people supposed to be convinced??
The work system is not too restrictive
Colleagues get along well
You can raise questions with your supervisor for rational discussion
The company is relatively passive regarding non-work matters
Colleagues are easy to get along with, and you can put forward your own ideas for discussion. It’s very flexible.
It’s hard to say.
High degree of autonomy, with many opportunities to learn. You can also contribute your own opinions and ideas during development.
Colleagues are easy to get along with.
The chairs are uncomfortable. Could you buy new ones for everyone? Everyone sometimes has to work more than 10 hours a day.
The company is very unfriendly toward employees who work overtime: there is no overtime pay, and no meal is provided (those who do not work overtime would not know, and of course would not care).
Could the snack allowance limit be increased? It is difficult to buy something tasty with 40 NTD, and if the cost exceeds that amount, we have to pay the difference ourselves (isn't this a foreign company? Don't be so stingy).
Other benefits could also be improved. Although there is a billiards table and a foosball table, hardly anyone uses them (everyone is probably very busy). Transferring money directly into employees' accounts for their birthdays would be more straightforward. A foreign company should offer the benefits expected of a foreign company. The benefits are not very good when there are few employees, and I believe they will not improve much even if the company grows. Everyone can see whether the company is growing; if it is growing, it is unreasonable for the benefits not to increase as well.
The MVP award has been given out many times, but the same few people are always selected. Other people work hard too, so why not use that money for employee benefits instead?
The company can save on "costs" (such as utilities), but please do not cut "benefits." Better benefits would help retain more people.
What benefits are we talking about? You can Google 104 to find out—for example, gifts or cash bonuses for the three major traditional holidays. Come to think of it, we don't seem to have those either = =
Colleagues are easy to get along with, there are quarterly bonuses, leisure facilities such as a billiards table and foosball table, and a weekly sports day with snacks.
Sometimes problems need to be handled after work or on holidays.
An environment suitable for fresh graduates, with harmonious relationships among colleagues
Relatively more freedom compared with other companies, without heavy institutionalization
Any issues can be brought up for discussion
There is a monthly review, quarterly bonuses, and opportunities for salary increases
Leaving work relatively late, with a low starting salary
If your performance is good, you can receive 16 months’ salary per year, with annual salary increases.
The work environment is relaxed, and the management is open-minded.
Many clients are overseas, so there is a time difference; you may need to be on call after work or during holidays.
There is no overtime pay.
A pay raise is reviewed every half month, there is a bonus every quarter, and the managers are easy to get along with.
Sometimes urgent matters come up that need to be handled immediately.
As a newcomer, you can learn a lot here.
If you are experienced, you can also grow professionally.
There are no partitions. It would be better if there were office cubicles.
The colleagues at the company are friendly and communicate well; everyone helps each other when there are problems.
The manager is open to hearing different ideas, so anything that can be discussed can be brought up.
In terms of technology, besides what is already in use, the company also tries to introduce new technologies, so there are many things to get exposure to.
There are English classes, Tuesday snacks, and badminton sports activities.
The English classes are somewhat like the teaching style of a cram school.
Colleagues are friendly and get along well.
The holiday decorations are pretty good.
You can wear headphones at work.
If you perform well, there is a quarterly bonus available (although it is sometimes delayed).
The supervisors are fairly approachable and communicative.
Working hours end relatively late.
There are no OA partitions!

It’s important, so I’m saying it three times.
The workload is quite busy. The foreign boss is a Super Saiyan but very nice. The company is continually growing, and the annual salary is equivalent to 16 months’ pay (17 months this year), so from my personal perspective, it’s not bad. Relations among colleagues are harmonious. So far, both domestic and overseas trips have been fully paid for by the company (whether this will continue as the number of employees grows is uncertain). Overall, it’s quite comfortable.
Human resources management could be improved.
Salary adjustments are generally announced after each quarterly review, and in some cases, there may be more than two adjustments in a year.
The workload is genuinely heavy, but essentially, you can also see that the company's business volume is continuously growing.
The employee benefits that have been mentioned are all provided.
Although overseas trips for employees are not held regularly, this year's trip, for example, was fully subsidized.
Sometimes, if you leave work late and need to lock up, you may not have a key.
#The company has paid out bonuses three times so far this year. They are basically equivalent to one month's salary, but an additional month's bonus was paid for the Lunar New Year this year.
#The actual total annual compensation received is fairly good.
#The bonus, though well-intentioned, caused uncertainty among employees because it was paid late. However, after employees raised the issue, management paid the most recent bonus on time, and the delayed payment was also made long ago.
Colleagues get along well.
I’ve hardly ever heard of anyone being scolded for making a mistake.
The supervisor is easy to communicate with, listens to and considers your opinions, and explains the reasons when something is unsuitable.
Having partitions would make things more comfortable.
- Colleagues and supervisors are easy to get along with and communicate with.
- The seating is open-plan without partitions, so it feels very spacious. However, everyone has different preferences, so this could be either a pro or a con.
- A weekly badminton session is held at Chao Ma Sports Center. The company pays for a long-term rental, and employees can participate freely.
- Afternoon snacks are provided once a week, usually on the same day as the sports session, since people generally go directly to the court to play after work. This keeps everyone from playing on an empty stomach.
- An English class is held once a week.
- Most clients are overseas—in Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Thailand, France, and elsewhere—so employees with good language skills may have opportunities to travel for work.
- A birthday celebration is held every three months. For example, birthdays for employees born in January, February, and March are celebrated in March; those born in April, May, and June are celebrated in June, and so on.
- An MVP is selected each month by company-wide vote. The employee with the most votes wins that month’s MVP award and can receive rewards such as a month of free breakfasts or movie-and-meal vouchers.
- Performance reviews are conducted once every quarter. The CTO spends nearly half a month speaking individually with each employee to discuss their work during the quarter and goals for the next quarter. The atmosphere is not tense, and the CTO listens patiently to every employee’s thoughts and explores them further, which is actually quite rare in the industry.
- A bonus is paid after each quarterly review, generally equivalent to one month’s salary.
- Because the English class is conducted with multiple students together, everyone has different proficiency levels and learning priorities, so the teaching approach cannot meet everyone’s expectations. For some people, the English class is quite boring.
- There was a period when bonuses were significantly delayed. I raised the impact of the delay on employees with the CTO during a performance review, and the CTO said the company would improve and try not to affect employees. This quarter’s bonus was paid on schedule, so let’s continue to see how things go!
The office has a billiards table and foosball. The company pays for the badminton court once a week. There is a weekly snack day, and each month one employee is selected as the best employee (with a bonus). There is a birthday celebration every three months, and a Christmas gift exchange. The company holds badminton tournaments (with bonuses), and communication within the company is possible. It is slowly growing and gradually evolving...
Bonuses are sometimes paid late, which can make people anxious about whether they will receive them. But you do get them in the end! They are just a little late.
The office environment is very spacious
The company has a billiards table and a foosball table
The colleagues are easy to get along with
The company brings in an English teacher for classes
This helps improve both your language skills and your value
The company also buys snacks every week
This year’s company trip was to Bali
I wonder where we’ll go next year?
Also, the bonus is considered quite high in the industry
Including this year’s year-end bonus, you can receive up to 17 months’ salary
It would be better if the partitions were changed to OA partitions
One free English class per week.
Free afternoon tea and desserts provided once a week.
Play badminton once a week (the company covers the court fee).
The work environment and equipment are good. The desks are spacious, the office chairs are comfortable, and the company provides each employee with a high-end laptop and an additional LCD monitor.
You may work with headphones on.
The colleagues are easy to get along with.
A company with a starting salary of around NT$27,000 and a duty-based compensation system.
Salary adjustments are made only about once a year, and the increases are not substantial.
For senior engineers (with more than three years of experience), getting a salary above NT$40,000 is even more difficult.
The company is named Jinyongli, but in reality it is Ogloba.
Whether there is insider information or whether it is legal is for you to judge.
The company will not enroll you in labor and health insurance, but will give you the money instead; you must handle the arrangements yourself through the Computer Association.
However, whether the Computer Association will allow you to enroll is another matter.
In principle, performance evaluations are conducted every quarter, with a bonus of up to one month’s salary (not guaranteed in full; it depends on individual effort).
The income is classified as overseas-source income. Although you do not have to pay tax, that is not necessarily a good thing.
On weekends and holidays, employees take turns being on call with the shared company phone, helping receive and reply to emails and making calls to the relevant supervisors to handle operational issues.
If your duty falls during a long holiday, you are on your own.
This type of work was not disclosed during the interview, and no overtime pay is provided for holiday work.
The boss is a foreigner, and there is only one opportunity to meet in person each quarter.
If you have to work overtime because of video conferences with overseas clients to discuss matters, overtime pay is of course also impossible (duty-based compensation).
Since this is a solutions provider, the work mainly involves modifying and maintaining existing customized programs.
