Read the community guidelinesVery close to the MRT station; non-assistant staff can leave work on time; the celebration banquet consists of boxed meals
I interviewed for position A, but in the end it turned into position B, which is a completely different type of role.
The average age is probably over 50, and some people are very self-centered. The impression they give is: “Don’t interfere with my affairs, but I’ll interfere with everything that’s yours; you have to do what I don’t want to do because I’m teaching you.” The administration team is very gossipy. As soon as I joined, they began investigating my personal background. One older female colleague would even say things like “I’m XXX,” acting as though she were very capable. Some managers are very incompetent and care a lot about saving face; when they go out to visit clients, they don’t know anything.
The company is constantly losing money, so basically there will be no profit-sharing, and there may not even be a year-end bonus. After the probation period, the smallest salary increase is only four digits (3%). Sales staff receive no bonuses because the company thinks the base salary is already very high, but in fact it isn’t. There is no overtime pay. If you report overtime, you will be called into the boss’s office and interrogated. If you are sick or feeling unwell, you cannot take sick leave as long as you still have annual leave available.
The work is inefficient. Departments A and B use different formats for the same documents, much of the data more than three years old cannot be retrieved, and the basic schedules for events are prepared very poorly.
Conclusion: dull and boring, extremely slow-paced, disorganized, and overly ambitious.
Very close to Guting Station
The founder is very narcissistic, calling himself the “X of optoelectronics”; currying favor with him is more important than job performance. The administrative team does not contribute to revenue, but is more arrogant than any other team. Learning how to deal with these meddlesome old-timers is the key to survival.
