Read the community guidelinesThe interview process was mediocre; they made it sound good at first.
I simply failed to attach the health examination form, and my salary for that month was immediately paid by check. The check could not be cashed for another three days, and the supervisor said that if I could not pay my rent, I could borrow money from a friend. The health examination form was not attached, and they did not inform me in advance. They deliberately issued a check. The supervisor said the company had reminded him that employees had not attached the health examination form, but the supervisor did not inform the employees in advance. Anyone applying for a job there in the future should pay more attention to these issues.
The work schedule was chaotic, and they frequently changed shifts.
Pays on time on the 10th of every month, no discrimination
I’ve never heard of anyone being fired
The pay is extremely low; in Taipei, many salaries are under NT$30,000
Overtime work is common, but the maximum is only around NT$39,000
Other companies already offer 10 days off per month and NT$38,000.
When I first interviewed, I joined because I had no experience, but later discovered
that they were basically tricking people into taking the job. It’s a low-paying company, and everyone knows the pay is low, yet they use deception to recruit people.
They also require guarantor information, and everyone is covered by fidelity insurance. In addition, employees must clock in and out online. They say it’s because of company policy, even though there is already a paper sign-in sheet.
Bad enough that you immediately want to leave; there’s no need to waste any more of your life here.
Below-normal salary. Violates labor working-hour regulations. Technically forces you to work (the scheduling staff changes every month, then they pretend not to know your vacation needs and schedule you for excessive and fully packed hours; they only help adjust it after you raise the issue, and then do the same thing again next time).
I applied for a community secretary position. There was nothing noteworthy about the interview process; they simply said that you seemed steady and reliable, so they hired you. They also told you that you would not be unemployed after entering this line of work. After learning that I had a part-time job, they urged me to quit it immediately, and then kept asking whether I was sure so they could report it.
Not a single word can be trusted. They kept urging you to quickly submit a labor health examination, photos, a guarantee letter, and other documents, even calling your home to pressure you. Finally, on the day you reported for work, after receiving the uniform, filling out a pile of company forms, and submitting all the required documents, they told you that afternoon that the position was gone—the community was not hiring a secretary—and told you to bring the uniform back to return it. Also, one of the documents provided on the first day stated that if you worked for less than three months, you had to pay 500 for uniform cleaning; for three months to one year, the charge would be prorated. Incidentally, one shirt costs 580, and they issue two. The whole thing is just absurd~
None
During the interview, they did not particularly ask about your previous work experience, which was very strange.
The cleaning lady at this company said that she has been working here for almost a year, and in less than a year she saw the company go through more than twenty administrative assistants, all of whom were asked to leave for unknown reasons.
Moreover, every administrative assistant was driven out before completing even one month of work.
It feels like workplace fraud, treating people as disposable tools.
The cleaning lady said that when she first came to work at this company, she happened to see a group of cleaning ladies at the company collectively submit resignation letters,
resulting in a mass resignation wave among the cleaning staff.
The cleaning lady said that if this company were not in such desperate need of cleaning staff, she would have been the next person they drove out and asked to resign.
None
The salary is much lower than that of competitors.
None. Basically, it was just a very ordinary interview, but they barely asked me anything, which I found extremely strange.
This is how I felt about the interview overall
1. Communication between superiors and subordinates seemed uncoordinated.
After the company interview, they told me to go to the actual work location to ask about the details. The supervisor said they would notify the people there in advance. That seemed reasonable, so I went to take a look at the workplace and ask the more experienced employees working there. However, after I arrived, I found that the management there had not been notified in advance, and I was given a cold look.
2. There was no labor insurance.
3. During the interview, they said a lot of nice-sounding things, but did not mention the salary at all. It seemed more like a workplace scam.
If you’re just looking for a temporary job to get by while studying for exams, or during the gap before finding your next ideal job, the work here is simple, so it might be worth trying. However, if you have aspirations for your career, you should probably look elsewhere.
1. Company policies: Although the position is nominally an electromechanical technician, the benefits are the same as those offered by a security company. The company does not comply with the Labor Standards Act. Basically, aside from the agreed-upon salary, labor and health insurance, and the 6% labor pension contribution, there are no other benefits. The company does not insure you based on your full salary (the agreed-upon salary), but only on the basic salary—high salary, low insurance reporting.
2. Work and leave system: Four-team, three-shift rotation: work 6 days, rest 2... work 6, rest 2... work 6, rest 2, rotating continuously. If a workday falls on a national holiday, annual leave, or even a typhoon day, there is no additional overtime pay or compensatory leave. When covering someone else’s shift, regardless of how many hours you work, you receive only NT$120 per hour—NT$240 for 2 hours, and so on. There is no 1.33x or 1.66x overtime rate.
3. Benefits: The job listing says there are 1–2 health examinations per year... Sometimes there is one, and then there are no more. If shift work causes health problems, you’re left to fend for yourself. Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and birthday gifts are fruit gift boxes or cup sets. I’ve never encountered marriage, funeral, or other celebration subsidies, so I don’t know about those. Outstanding employee trips... haha—nothing like that. Year-end bonus and banquet... The year-end bonus depends on how long you’ve worked there and amounts to only a few thousand, so don’t expect much. As for the year-end banquet, senior company management eats, while you get NT$200 to attend the banquet. Club activities... What are those? There’s no such thing. Also, after working for a full year, there is no such thing as annual leave. Additionally, if your shift happens to fall on Lunar New Year’s Eve, you get only NT$300. From Lunar New Year’s Day through the fifth day, it’s treated just like a regular workday—haha.
Do not come to this company—especially the mobile unit. And don’t listen to them talk about how good the pay is. In practice, calculated based on 12-hour security shifts, what they offer is even below the statutory wage. I’m just too lazy to argue with them about it anymore. Think carefully before applying.
I work in the electromechanical department.
This company only pays the agreed-upon salary.
There is no paid annual leave, no additional overtime pay for working on national holidays, and regardless of how many overtime hours you work, they only pay 120 per hour.
Working on annual leave is paid only 300, and overtime pay is not calculated at all in accordance with the Labor Standards Act.
