Colleagues constantly push work onto one another. The environment involving the entire company’s management and staff is extremely poor. Those who work seriously and voluntarily work overtime are treated as if it were only natural.

There are a lot of people who pretend to understand things they don’t. Working there will make you sick.

There is no professional expertise. New employees are sent to the client’s site to solve computer problems before they have even been there for three days.

A terrible company that wastes your time.

What everyone upstairs said is true. Regardless of the company’s location in the north, central, or south, the way it treats employees is the same: a three-month probationary period, and you’re expected to be fully proficient with the computer and systems within two weeks. Sales staff must provide their own notebook and car.

You’re expected to work overtime on your own every day until you resign. The coworkers have all been there for a long time, and they may not necessarily teach you.

1. Fill out several exam papers.

2. The customer service department supervisor asked some technical questions during the interview.

3. Hired

1. No water

2. It took 1 hour

3. The meeting room is not large

First, the position I interviewed for and was hired into was Administrative Assistant / Warehouse Management at the Taipei branch.

1. The vice president is very nice.

2. You can leave work on time.

The company does not have a process or SOP for onboarding new employees. The other four administrative assistants at the company have all been with the company for several years and are highly experienced. They are generally willing to teach, but the training is very disorganized: one moment they teach you one thing, and the next moment something else. Basically, they teach you whatever they are currently doing if they think you can learn it. The learning process is very painful. Even if you follow your own notes to complete a task, there is a high chance you will make mistakes because some details or special situations are known only to experienced employees—how could a newcomer know them? In addition, each of the administrative assistants is actually very busy and has little time to train you. Sometimes, even after you finish a task, you cannot ask them to check it. A large part of your workday is spent sitting at your desk with no idea what you can do. Before you have even become familiar with one task, they immediately assign another one to you. Some people may be able to tolerate this, but I personally could not, so I chose to resign.

The interviewer was quite nice during the interview.

The front desk staff was extremely rude. After I told them I was there for an interview, they shouted, “Another person here for an interview.” After I filled out the basic information and handed it to them, they even looked at my personal information while walking away. Extremely rude.

The only benefit is that you will be paid what you are owed.

But this work environment will make you sick.

Really, don't come here and waste your time.

There are very few capable people.

The company relies on those few people to keep it going.

Everyone else just talks without taking action.

The manager keeps taking on assignments they cannot handle themselves.

As a result, there is only one person underneath who can actually handle them.

The manager does not trust the employees.

They come up with lots of excuses instead of thinking about how to improve.

It’s really easygoing. In the IT department, there are two programmers, and they can’t even complete one or two small tasks a month. They spend more than 20 days of the month with nothing to do. The boss is truly generous—hiring two people for a workload equivalent to 0.2 of a person. But sometimes having nothing to do really makes time drag unbearably.

All day long, I have to listen to colleagues lie to and brainwash the manager. The manager ends up brainwashed, able to understand only lies and unable to take in the truth. In the end, the manager even discusses the lies with the colleagues who told them, treating those lies as truth. Yet the manager often says, “You’re lying to me,” while actually believing them. It’s truly just like Taiwan’s current Democratic Progressive Party deceiving Taiwan’s foolish citizens: the colleagues are like online propagandists lying and brainwashing people, while the manager is like the people whose minds have been conditioned to believe only lies.

1. The working environment is poor. As soon as you enter the main entrance, you see a pile of miscellaneous items. Occasionally, you may even see cockroaches wandering around. There are only two meeting rooms: the first is the general manager's office, and the second is a video conference room that is also filled with miscellaneous items. Although a cleaning lady is brought in to clean, there is still dust on the floor, and the tangled wires make the area look even more chaotic.

2. The printer is shared by the entire company. Whenever someone causes a paper jam, everyone's documents afterward are delayed.

3. Because my colleagues at my previous company were so friendly, by comparison, the colleagues at this company are rather...... In addition, the HR lady is very harsh. Whenever she catches something she does not like, she loudly calls out the colleague's name, as if she wants everyone to know that someone made a mistake.

This HR lady seems to have become like a supervisor for the northern Taiwan company, and it is apparent that the business unit she belongs to is quite dominant.

4. The head office is in Kaohsiung, so there can be delays when clocking in and out. Even when I have clocked in, I occasionally still receive an absenteeism email. After notifying the head-office HR department to help handle it, I was even told by the Kaohsiung HR department that it was a Taipei problem... I really cannot accept this kind of attitude toward handling the issue.

I have worked at this company for some time, and I sincerely do not recommend it!!!

It depends on which department you’re in.......

The systems department manager is very capable and willing to lead the team. They care about their subordinates’ situations. The two most senior people in the systems department have both been there for over 10 years~

The salary is really just as previous colleagues said~ The base salary is 25K, plus various allowances under different names to bring it up to 30K!

The computer department manager....... cannot be commented on, does not know how to lead the team, and cannot provide you with support. They nitpick over monthly field expenses; if something goes wrong, it’s your problem!!!

The engineer turnover rate is very high. If you can put up with some annoying matters, this is a good place to hone yourself both mentally and physically............

If you're capable, it's easy to coast; even if you're not very capable, it doesn't matter—everyone has plenty of experience cleaning up messes.

1. The salary is acceptable, but there are occasional meetings after work (no overtime pay, but free boxed meals).

2. The manager is very good at Monday-morning quarterbacking. When sending you out, they always say they believe you can handle the client's problems well; once a complaint comes in, it's suddenly portrayed as you taking matters into your own hands and messing things up, followed by a meeting to single you out for review.

3. Deadweight teammates... everyone probably encounters them, but here you constantly have to clean up after them, and there are never any rewards or disciplinary consequences.

You have to take turns being on duty after work and on holidays. The on-call allowance for an entire month is NT$1,000—not even enough to cover the phone calls to clients.

4. Management never seems to recognize engineers' abilities or dedication. Those who coast and those who work very hard receive only a 1% difference in annual raises (roughly within NT$300). Raises and year-end bonuses are issued based on whether the manager feels like approving them. I've seen very capable employees receive only their base salary as a year-end bonus, while those who coast receive generous bonuses.

5. Overtime can be logged online, but whether it gets approved depends on whether the manager feels like approving it.

6. There are subsidies for phone bills and fuel costs, but of course, it still depends on whether the manager wants to provide them. At least, I have never successfully received the phone-bill subsidy; sometimes several fuel expenses are also deducted, and you have to re-enter the application.

7. Policies often change from one day to the next, and it always comes down to whether the manager feels like it.

Messy environment

The meeting room had no air conditioning, the doors and windows were closed, and there was no water provided.

Made the interviewee wait too long.

I arrived about 15–20 minutes early and filled out a bunch of forms, including a personal background questionnaire, an English written test, and a personality test. It took me a little over 50 minutes to finish. After I handed everything to the receptionist, she told me to wait a moment, so I left the documents on her desk and returned to the meeting room to wait. After waiting for over 30 minutes, the supervisor still had not arrived, so I went out on my own. The receptionist kept saying, “Please wait a moment; the supervisor is still busy.” I told her, “Sorry, I have another interview later, so I need to leave first.”

If the supervisor was busy, shouldn’t they have proactively told the staff how much longer the interviewee would need to wait, instead of making the interviewee go out and ask? It showed complete disrespect for the interviewee’s time and made them wait around for nothing.

Since the supervisor was busy, shouldn't they have proactively told the staff downstairs how much longer the interviewee would need to wait, rather than making the interviewee go out and ask? This showed complete disrespect for the interviewee's time and made them wait for nothing.

An absurdly extensive personal background questionnaire, an elementary-school-level English written test, and interviewers wearing flip-flops. When you enter the office, no one greets you or pays any attention to you. The office is cluttered and noisy. The salary offered is base salary + 3. It is recommended that you not waste your time.

The interview was short and very casual.

Summary first: Don’t waste your time joining this company. Look at the environment, the coworkers, the products, and the salary and working hours (you usually have to go to clients’ sites after work to install systems and equipment, with no overtime pay). The interview form was the most old-fashioned and incomprehensible detailed background investigation I’ve ever filled out. However, within less than ten minutes of arriving, I already knew I wouldn’t want to work for this company—and they wouldn’t have any use for me either.

1. When I arrived to check in, they couldn’t even find out who had notified me to come for the interview. Later, the HR person who had contacted me took me to a meeting room and told me to fill things out without speaking with me at all.

2. The company was chaotic as soon as I walked in. I could hear people laughing and fooling around outside even while I was in the meeting room.

3. The overall environment was very shabby. I filled out the forms alone in the meeting room, with neither the air conditioning nor the fan turned on. With windows on both sides and being on a high floor, I nearly died from the heat.

4. For the English written test, they gave me a middle-school-level passage to translate. I seriously questioned the level of their managers—I might even have been able to interview them in English.

5. They quickly revealed their attitude toward employees: there is no overtime pay. The company’s products are all sold to manufacturers, and installing the equipment and systems requires going there in the middle of the night. If the salary were reasonable, or if they were willing to pay properly, that would be fine—but the salary they offered was insulting as well.

6. It’s not even a large company, yet they didn’t provide any update after the interview. How terrible. A few days later, they even opened my résumé again while continuing to look for people. With that attitude and that salary, there’s no way they can attract talent.
