A fake interview that was really a sales pitch
Those who are weak-willed and sign up will be fleeced several layers deep if they later try to quit
Oh, and if the store doesn't hit its monthly sales target, the bonus percentage will be completely drained. In worse cases, there won't be any bonus at all
Once, when I was working the late shift, the owner came to the branch for a surprise inspection. Even after my shift ended, I was lectured for half an hour before being allowed to leave
I realized something was off and got out

Interviewed for a teaching assistant position
In reality, they used the guise of training to sell a course
Course fee: 128,000
If you pass and are hired, the pay is approximately 26,400 per month
Basically, this is definitely a job scam
The company used the name Zhan Yong when inviting applicants by phone
This makes it impossible for you to find court judgments and employment records
A company to avoid
Job seekers, please exercise caution
1. Two days off per week (?)
1. One day of duty on one of the two weekly days off (1000) can be exchanged for one compensatory day off (working one day of overtime for 1000—is this in compliance with the Labor Standards Act? Regardless of whether it is legal, what idiot wouldn’t exchange it for a compensatory day off?)
2. Overall, the interview felt like a fake interview that was really for promoting courses (they use the sales pitch that you can work part-time as a teaching assistant to persuade you to take their courses)
3. Meals are at your own expense
The frontline colleagues are very easy to get along with.
The problems all come from the boss.
If you really can't find a job,
you can consider working here—but it's even worse than doing delivery.
The boss and the owner's wife are still stuck in outdated ideas from over 30 years ago and have not progressed.
During the interview, they kept aggressively pushing their courses on you.
After buying the course and signing, I only then discovered that it was extremely basic.
When you try to get a refund, they come up with all kinds of excuses to fob you off. Most outrageous of all, they actually created an entire folder of simulated scenarios and had other employees play the bad guys.
Adding some things that others haven't mentioned:
The actual situation is even worse.
Absolutely no advantages
The female boss in charge of the money has double standards. Regular working hours already do not comply with the Labor Standards Act, but that's not all—despite having six days off per month, employees still have their leave deducted by the boss. When it benefits her, she says it is the company's original system. For the Lunar New Year holiday, she says the company must follow the regulations for government agencies. May I ask: then why don't employee rights and benefits follow the Labor Standards Act? It is completely a case of double standards, choosing only what benefits herself. In addition, employees are exploited: even after changing positions, they are required to handle both their original duties and the duties of the new position. Is this an attempt to save on personnel costs? The turnover rate among front-desk staff is far higher than you can imagine. If an interview is deemed unsuitable, they will try to sell you their courses. I strongly advise against joining this company. It is easy to walk in, but difficult to resign. I heard that some people took a year to complete their handover before leaving, while others submitted their resignation countless times and still could not escape Devil's Island. The boss/owner of this company is absolutely the highest level of a stereotypical exploitative employer. Please think twice!
Salary is paid on time, and the colleagues are easy to get along with.
You get paid 22K, have to work shifts, and there is no overtime pay. The boss just keeps telling you how great this job is and how much you can learn.
Also, for a place that sells computer courses, its official website still looks like it is stuck in the era when the company was first founded. It is really hard to convince customers that this company's courses are better than those offered by GiantX or LianX. Whenever sales are lacking, they will invite people to interviews to promote the courses. Be careful not to get brainwashed during the interview.
Oh, and the boss really likes pushing some inexplicable freebies and promotions......
Receive your salary on time every month, but during the interview I was pressured into signing up for courses and paying in installments. Later, when I regretted it, there was nothing I could do.
The base salary is NT$22,000, plus bonuses. If you can earn NT$30,000 a month, you're doing well. Absolutely do not let them brainwash you into buying any prep courses during the interview. Otherwise, your entire salary will just go toward installment payments.
22k superficially claims every-other-weekend-off, but with on-call duties, you only get 4–5 days off a month. There is no overtime pay for working Saturdays, and you are not allowed to clock in when on duty Sundays. Working on national holidays is not counted as overtime either.
The base salary is 22k, plus bonuses. If you can earn 30k a month, you're doing well. Absolutely do not let yourself be brainwashed into buying any prep courses during the interview. Otherwise, you'll end up spending your entire salary on installment payments.
