Can't think of any.

They scheduled an interview and then kept changing the time—first saying that the supervisor wasn't at the company, then that they were on a business trip or something. I arrived at the interview location on time, only to wait around doing nothing. Then they left me in a place that looked like a break room, and after making me wait for ages, finally told me that the supervisor was on the phone. It was truly embarrassing. If you're very busy, then don't schedule interviews. There's no need to be so disrespectful.

During the interview, they asked me to introduce myself, then kept interrupting me. Their tone was full of impatience. It felt like they weren't really interested in interviewing me and just wanted to go do their own thing. Then they started criticizing my résumé. That alone wouldn't have mattered, but the key point is that they asked me these questions, and then were still dissatisfied with my answers, speaking in a sarcastic and passive-aggressive tone. Then why ask pointless questions in the first place? Why go out of your way to invite someone to an interview just to humiliate them?

They also asked, “Do you know what the company does?” I gave a simple answer. The only information about your company that can be easily found is on your official website and job-search websites, but they still didn't seem satisfied. That made me even more confused. Shouldn't you be the one explaining what your company does? Why was I the one expected to explain it? Was I supposed to make a presentation from scratch explaining what your company does? Then would I be the interviewer?

Please—when we go to your company for an interview, you are interviewing us applicants, but we applicants are also interviewing the company, okay? This left an extremely bad impression. Your time is apparently valuable, but other people's time isn't. If you're considering interviewing there, judge for yourself. If you don't mind potentially wasting your time, then go ahead and take a look.

No pros

Fifeng Company arranged an interview for me on May 31. At the time, two people interviewed me: a manager from the Administration Department and an HR representative. During the interview, the Administration Department manager told me that I had been hired and asked me to report to work on June 4. After the interview, HR also notified me by text message of the reporting time and the documents I needed to prepare for June 4. Since I had not received a formal offer letter, I called HR to ask whether one could be provided. HR told me that the company’s process was to notify candidates only by text message.

Because I had not understood the calculation method for the year-end bonus, and I had not clearly understood the salary structure explained by the manager during the interview (the manager repeatedly emphasized that the breakdown of the salary structure was for the company’s external accounting purposes, and that the salary I would receive was the salary I expected minus labor and health insurance premiums), I also asked HR about it during the call. HR answered my questions that day. After I understood the details, I informed HR that I would report to the company on June 4. Who would have thought that this morning, June 3, HR from Fifeng Company would call and tell me that I no longer needed to report to work on June 4? The reason given was that I had not asked about the year-end bonus calculation during the interview and had not requested a formal offer letter, which made the manager feel that I did not trust Fifeng Company. HR said that the Administration Department manager had concerns about my questions, so I was asked not to come in for the time being.

I do not understand what was wrong with this manager’s thinking.

1. Is it really not acceptable to ask about the salary structure and bonus payment method afterward? HR clearly said that I could ask her if I had any questions. Does that mean there is a specific time when questions may be asked? Interviewees need to understand the company they are going to work for, and these questions are completely normal. What concerns could the company possibly have? None of this involved the company’s trade secrets or anything of the sort. An offer letter also provides protection for both parties!

2. Fifeng Company’s sudden reversal and failure to honor the offer has already harmed the interviewee’s rights! I turned down interview and job opportunities with other companies...

I will file complaints through other channels as well!

A company with no credibility that can change its decision at any time—

those planning to interview there should be careful.

This company has no credibility whatsoever. They told me during the interview that I had been hired and gave me a reporting date, then later went back on their word and told me not to come. Anyone planning to interview there should choose carefully. If you are hired, make sure to obtain a formal offer letter to avoid being left with no recourse after encountering a manager who goes back on their word! (I do not know whether notification by text message and verbal notification of an offer count as official.)

I am a former employee.

This company is just like a prime-time soap opera:

1. It is a family business, and the boss’s wife interferes in company affairs.

2. The boss often acts impulsively, personnel assignments change frequently, and the wrong people are put in the wrong positions.

3. The sales staff are entrenched old-timers who ostracize newcomers.

4. The machines are borrowed from other companies, yet the company claims externally that they are its own publicly owned production and manufacturing assets. In addition, BSMI is extremely problematic and corrupt.

There is far too much to list.

Think carefully before joining.
