全家便利商店股份有限公司

Both the pros and cons are for the Taipei headquarters

The restrooms are clean and have bidet toilets

Childcare benefits are available, and the childcare facility is downstairs

Occasional product tastings

Some benefits are only available after completing a certain number of years of service—stingy

Holiday gift money is issued through the FamiWallet, which is inconvenient to use

The organization is extremely bloated and bureaucratic, with a rigid vertical hierarchy, making promotion difficult

Competitors’ products, such as City Cafe, cannot appear in the office; you will be reprimanded, on the grounds that this shows a lack of brand loyalty

One side of the office is next to the emergency stairwell, and cigarette smoke drifts in from time to time

Employees are required to arrive 10 minutes early every Monday morning for a meeting. In effect, they take one day’s wages from you for every 48 days worked

Taking personal leave for more than a certain number of days (a single-digit number) will start to affect your performance evaluation. New employees don’t even have annual leave yet—what the hell

The company’s internal systems are still rooted in technology from 35 years ago, and their logic and functional design lack long-term planning, making them exceptionally difficult to use

The year-end bonus is guaranteed at two months’ salary, with performance bonuses calculated separately. However, the guaranteed two months are split into one month paid in each half of the year, while the performance bonus is paid in the second half. This means that employees who want to change jobs always lose out on half a year’s worth of bonus

The general manager, in his rush to wash the chopsticks he is holding, will tell employees who are washing lunchboxes not to waste water. Some more perceptive supervisors will prioritize letting him wash the chopsticks. Interpret this culture for yourself

Summary: This company is extremely narrow-minded and lacking in generosity in both outlook and temperament. Choose carefully

1. A 14-month guarantee and occasional new product tastings

2. Highly challenging work, suitable for those with the ability to continuously improve themselves or with prior experience

Position: Innovation Engineer

1. Work situation: The workflow is flexible, and newcomers need to learn independently to enhance their abilities. The supervisor provides few specific indicators, making the work challenging.

2. Personal professional value: Communication with the supervisor will challenge your professional capabilities, making this position suitable for those with strong professional skills.

3. Work atmosphere: Good relationships with other colleagues; extra care is needed when dealing with the direct supervisor.

Guaranteed 14 months

High-pressure environment

Strongly servile attitude

Senior managers have the authority to change departmental bonuses

High pay, 170/hour

Absolutely do not go to the new X store. One of the managers there invites the owner's children to come to the store to “play,” ostensibly to help them earn pocket money, but in reality they just chat and fool around. Then the four of them sit and chat idly in the office, leaving one new employee standing alone at the counter to greet customers. The daughter is very troublesome and imitates the new employee's customer greetings. The manager also goes around lying that the other person quit without giving prior notice, badmouthing the new employee. It's really frightening—absolutely do not go～

Several years ago, at the Taichung X Zhong store,

I joined as a master's-level management trainee after an interview. The career path supposedly allowed one to be promoted faster than an on-site store manager.

At the time, the store manager, whose surname was the same as that of a Chinese dynasty, boasted all day about how many coffee machines she could operate at once at the high-speed rail station.

It was laughable—did your mother give birth to you just to operate coffee machines?

She was unbelievably arrogant, but acted like a dog whenever a department head came by.

She assigned you a pile of cleaning and housekeeping tasks.

Still, it's also thanks to your nonstop juggling of those pathetic tricks

that I ended up doing well after leaving, while you couldn't earn as much even after several years.

I've never seen a woman behave like that.

Being a store manager with so little social experience—truly pathetic.

Whenever a department head or other senior official came by, everyone had to stand rigidly at attention.

The whole place had a military culture, so I left after only two months.

My advice to everyone: if you're thinking of going, think it through very carefully.

When I was taking OC, they deliberately used a stopwatch to time me, saying that if I didn’t finish within five minutes, I wouldn’t be allowed to continue and would have to resume after work. A shady establishment deliberately trying to make people work unpaid overtime.

There is time to go out and buy food during the meal break

An affair between a colleague and the boss, bullying

Colleagues play with their phones during work

I only took a quick look, and they reprimanded me
