They are also fairly generous with overtime pay.
Travel subsidy: NT$35,000 to NT$50,000, depending on operating conditions.
There are many activities (but basically, newcomers never have time to participate).
After a major round of generous payouts in 2019, the overall workload also increased.
The company works you very hard (but does pay overtime).
Usually, when business conditions are good, the workload increases accordingly.
There is considerable variation in profit sharing, ranging from 0x to 3x.
If your performance is poor, you may receive 0 directly and be placed on a performance improvement plan; after two instances, you may be terminated.
Those who perform well can go straight to heaven.
Aside from the heavy workload, things are actually still fairly decent.
The work pressure is also very high, and the pressure of making mistakes is considerable.
Relevant experience is enough to get hired

1. Overtime can be claimed on regular days and holidays; as long as it does not exceed the limits under the Labor Standards Act, it is generally allowed. However, since the implementation of the one fixed day off and one flexible rest day policy, holiday overtime has been subject to stricter controls.
2. The restaurant food is slightly better than Realtek's.
3. The year-end party is quite good. The dishes are decent, and the food is still slightly better than Realtek's.
4. The salary is fairly good. The base salary alone should be higher than Realtek's, lower than MediaTek's, and about the same as MStar's.
1. There is a great deal of work on the TV system platform, but it is not the most profitable or the best-paying area. It is somewhat of a mess, and the top three teams for annual overtime are all here.
2. The company culture is more favorable toward long-serving employees. On average, their performance ratings tend to rank higher. In addition, the company implements differentiated profit sharing. Unless it is a new venture division or the company's revenue is strong, for employees who have just joined and have been there for 3–5 years, profit-sharing bonuses are essentially “anger-inducement bonuses.”
3. Each year's profit-sharing bonus is paid after first deducting the previous year's overtime pay from it.
No one has written about Novatek? I’ll be the first.
The managers, guidance, and salary are all good. The senior employees often act as managers, but I still haven’t figured out what they actually do. Maybe they’re just joking or using stock phrases—I don’t know.
I haven’t noticed any drawbacks so far. I’m a newcomer, so perhaps I’ll discover some later.
