Low pay; some managers and colleagues in teams within the fourth-floor department are difficult to get along with—arrogant and lacking empathy; rigid systems. Senior management and managers still naively believe that 7-ELEVEN is invincible and show no desire to improve.
There are only cons.
I previously worked in the logistics department. The old hands there only bullied newcomers. Every year, they relied on newcomers receiving poor performance reviews in their second year and resigning on their own. The old hands did not write code at all; they only claimed to be SAs, and their know-how was completely inadequate. As soon as you hear that it involves cold-chain logistics, basically don't bother going to the interview—it's a garbage department. In a department of 10 people, the output of eight people depended on two new hires. If you have nothing to do, whatever you do, don't ruin your own life. Best wishes to everyone who wants to make the most of their abilities and strengths.
The HR team is very professional.
Cons
You have to submit a bunch of information before the interview and answer many questions.
During the video interview, the interviewer did not turn on their video. The AI interview manager, whose name was Li XX, was not very courteous in tone from the outset. They specifically asked questions unrelated to the interview, and if you could not answer them, they assumed you had copied someone else’s code. This really crossed the line.
I advise everyone not to join such an unprofessional environment.
You can probably guess that there are many more horror stories here.
Highly not recommended
None
1. The interview requires a very detailed salary structure. Before joining, you must also sign a personal guarantee and provide a copy of the household registration transcript.
2. All benefits must be approved by the parent company (7-ELEVEN). Even the issuance of the three seasonal bonuses must be discussed with the parent company; if the parent company does not agree, there will be no three seasonal bonuses.
3. Please think carefully before joining a back-office unit. The back-office units lack cohesion, and everyone does their own thing. HR in particular is very good at passing tasks off, and its responses to other departments are also very discourteous. HR even has to ask other units how to handle its own internal problems.
4. The section manager in the Administration and Management unit is very prone to nagging and often complains about subordinates. They frequently take on work that other departments do not want to do, then tell subordinates to do it.
There are no advantages
This is a company that has absolutely no respect for job applicants.
Before the pandemic, they invited me to an interview.
Before the interview, I had to fill out basic personal information,
take a personality test,
and complete the test questions they had prepared.
It took me a full four hours.
On the day of the interview,
the hiring manager suddenly had something come up,
so they found a junior employee to conduct the interview.
In the end, they did not ask about the test questions they had prepared at all.
They only asked things that had nothing to do with programming.
For example, “Do you know SEO?”
SEO and programming have absolutely nothing to do with each other.
After that, the interviewer from HR directly asked how much I earned at my previous job.
After I answered, the HR representative immediately said, “The interview is over for today.”
The entire interview took less than 15 minutes from start to finish.
If you cannot offer the salary that people deserve,
then do not waste people’s time by inviting them to an interview.
Do you really think other people’s time is not valuable?
The HR team is quite professional.
You have to submit a bunch of information before the interview and answer many questions.
Some of the logic questions are quite interesting.
During the video interview, the interviewer didn’t turn on their camera, so I had no idea whether they had finished asking a question and didn’t know when I should answer.
Their tone wasn’t particularly courteous either.
Then they ended the interview early and sent a rejection letter without any explanation.
My department can leave work on time, the atmosphere is also good, and the workload is moderate. In fact, it’s suitable for coasting until retirement.
They cut various benefits on the pretext of the pandemic or business performance. Has Uni-President ever lost money? The salary is low, and the snack box disappeared. Benefits have never been included in our pay; they are always Uni-President Group gift vouchers, 7-ELEVEN merchandise cards, and iCash stored value, all going into its own group companies—a fine example of a self-contained cycle! The gifts for the three major festivals are all from Uni-President subsidiaries (usually Starbucks), but this year’s Mid-Autumn Festival gift also disappeared. They even had the nerve to write on 104 that there were gifts for the three major festivals (I just checked and it has been changed to “holiday gifts”; they don’t dare write “three major festivals”). We understand that birthday parties, group meals, Christmas dinners, year-end parties, and travel subsidies were canceled because of the pandemic, but couldn’t that budget have been converted into other benefits? It disappeared completely as well. By the way, the iCash stored value for the second half of the year was cut by several thousand according to the same ratio. As a newcomer, I had more than NT$3,000 cut—who knows how things are for the veteran employees?
1. The hiring manager in the first interview was very easy to talk to.
2. The online test, personnel information, and logic assessment were very convenient.
3. Video interview
1. Asking for a salary of 50,000 was rejected.
2. The HR representative in the second interview did not look very friendly.
3. The department manager conducted the second interview; you need to speak fluently, otherwise you may be rejected.
4. The interview was held at the beginning of the month, but they did not notify me until the end of the month.
5. HR will ask you for your salary and year-end bonus information.
