宇騫數位科技有限公司

It looks like an innovative company with drive, and there seem to be many opportunities to learn and grow.

In reality, the owner of this company is extremely penny-pinching. No single product is profitable enough, so the company ends up trying to develop everything, while the owner is reluctant to properly pay overtime. At the same time, they like to paint employees a rosy picture, promising that becoming a manager will lead to a bright future. As a result, employees have been leaving one by one. Who would be willing to be a guinea pig for an owner like this, testing the market waters?

The company is fairly unique in the market, seemingly holding nationwide patents and having received some awards. It should be a profitable company. The owner is relatively young, so it is possible to discuss technical issues with him. Yes, the interview includes technical questions, such as experience using SDKs and problems encountered at previous companies, asking how I would solve them... But compared with the purely sales-oriented companies I worked for before, there is much more to it. At least, I feel I can speak frankly with the owner. Oh, and the biggest advantage is that you can choose to work from home or work flexible hours at the office, with online clock-in. This is the advantage I like most.

The requirements for engineers during the interview were a bit excessive. They require experience in system development as well as ideas about interaction design, and also require a take-home or on-site coding test and a code review. Can't I simply take the job as a stepping stone? In addition, the company is currently renovating, so it is not yet clear what the office will be like in the future. Also, the office is on the third and fourth floors, and having no elevator makes climbing the stairs somewhat tiring. There are relatively few shops near the company, so finding places to eat in the future may be a problem. However, if you choose to work remotely from home, it should not matter. Basically, I still hope I can get the job.

The company’s location seems good, and the boss and assistant are quite easy to talk to.

The salary and benefits are not good, and there are hardly any benefits to speak of. To join this company, you have to accept taking on more work beyond the scope of the position. The job duties are not limited to just a few tasks, and you can only request a raise after one year. I suggest that people interviewing ask for a higher salary from the start; if you cannot accept this, give up directly.

The colleagues were nice, but they’ve all left.

There is a record of illegal excessive overtime. The boss believes employees should be loyal to the company, but employees’ further education is a personal requirement and unrelated to the company.
