Read the community guidelines1. Since the company is involved in food, theoretically, if you want to cook, you can take ingredients (but remember to wash the dishes).
2. The boss's ability to talk business with suppliers or contacts is worth learning from?
3. Two days a week, you can get sandwiches and drinks from the first floor.
4. The boss likes to encourage you on the surface, giving you the impression that you're great but haven't yet fully demonstrated your abilities. How can you not do your work properly?
1. The company is disorganized, and cockroaches run around the sink.
2. There is only one person in management: the boss.
3. From the first floor and inside the office, you often hear the boss loudly communicating with employees as if his life depended on it.
4. During New Year and other holidays, everyone has to go help at the warehouse. The warehouse still relies on manual labor to pull orders.
5. They like to treat work after hours as part of your responsibility, calling you without caring whether you're on leave or sick.
6. To my colleagues and former colleagues reading this: those who should stay, stay; those with ability should leave.
You always have to experience it yourself to know whether it suits you.
Can't think of any
The company's management is a complete mystery.
. Employees have been gone for who knows how long, yet it can still be discovered that their labor and health insurance was never transferred out—the company is losing money every day.
. Employees have been gone for who knows how long, yet the management backend permissions can remain active for another eight or ten months without being revoked. They have nerves of steel.
Just these two points alone show that management is basically asleep. Anyone who has ever worked a job should understand how serious this is, right???
The front door and back door are always wide open; they go to work every day relying on fortune-telling blocks to gamble on their luck.
Finally, a word of advice: people with low emotional resilience should think twice before joining! Just read the comments from those who came before~
Pros? ??? I really can't think of any.
If I had to say something, the salary is paid.
Please remember to read more of everyone's comments; basically, what everyone says is true.
The environment is so poor that cockroaches run around everywhere. I have absolutely no idea why they prepare so much food and then leave it uncleaned until the next day, and the day after that.
The company's job allocation is uneven. The boss's dreams are big, but reality is harsh. The company has been operating for more than 10 years now, and the boss should have been in charge for over 10 years as well.
There are still a lot of problems with the operations.
Pros? Huh??? I can't think of any.
If I really have to say something? The salary was paid.
Please remember to read more of everyone's comments; basically, what everyone says is accurate.
The environment is so bad that cockroaches run around freely. I have absolutely no idea why they make a bunch of food and then, when no one cleans it up, simply leave it there until the next day and the day after that.
The company's responsibilities are unevenly distributed. The boss has big dreams but is harsh about reality. The boss has probably been running the company for more than 10 years by now,
yet there are still a lot of problems with its operations.

Bonuses are getting smaller and smaller; the company’s actual name is Hung Rui Zhen Sandwiches.
Bonuses are getting smaller and smaller, and the company’s situation is becoming increasingly chaotic. They bring in a bunch of people who can’t even properly fill out reports or calculate inventory.
Whether colleagues or supervisors, they’re all at this level. They can be late to open the store and treat it as perfectly normal, or suddenly fail to show up during an agreed-upon support shift. No wonder both the full-time employees and part-time workers I know are resigning one after another. I don’t know whether I haven’t worked here long enough, or whether most companies are like this??
I’d like to know what the advantages are.
Isn’t Hong Ruizhen curious about what’s strange?
How could they choose an agency like this?
(It turns out Hong Ruizhen didn’t open it themselves; it’s operated by an agent.)
Employees’ salaries are often paid late, bonuses aren’t paid,
or they’re underpaid. Sometimes employees aren’t properly insured either. The previous supervisors have all left. Who would dare stay? Fortunately, I was only there for a short-term job.
And that certain female store manager clearly has no sense of responsibility, is often late, and doesn’t know how to manage people. I don’t know what the boss sees in her.
I heard she was transferred to Taipei from another county or city.
It’s ridiculous that the boss still supports someone like that.
The interview was explained fairly clearly.
The manager conducting the interview explained things in quite a lot of detail.
But considering the amount of customer traffic they get, the salary is far too low. They said there would be performance targets and bonuses, but when I asked how much I could roughly expect to earn each month, they couldn’t say. Then I looked at the reviews, and it feels like a very chaotic company.
For such a large brand, the compensation is far too stingy.
Colleagues at the various stores under the company can work hard and strive together toward their goals. There are few problems involving infighting or bullying among colleagues, except across the stores in the Taipei–New Taipei metropolitan area.
1. The boss likes to hear flattering words. Employees do not need to know how to do their jobs; as long as they know how to curry favor and act cute, they can get by. The boss does not really assess employees’ abilities or logical thinking when they speak. People who know how to put on an act can survive comfortably.
2. Capable people are not noticed or acknowledged by the boss. If their abilities surpass others’, they may even be treated as targets.
3. The managers of stores outside the metropolitan area collude with colleagues to bully others, causing the bullied employees psychological and physical harm. The store manager has no empathy and does not lead by example in managing the store, while the boss allows this abuse of power to continue.
4. You never know when you will receive your pay stub. Accounting always has countless excuses and resorts to crying in an emotional breakdown to deal with and deflect problems as they arise.
5. The bonus system is never consistent. Even after bonuses are announced, the company simply does not pay the bonuses that are owed. Company announcements are effectively meaningless, the bonus system is an illusion, and colleagues’ hard work receives no equivalent return.
6. The boss in charge of the company likes to talk about dreams in plain language. If you also like to dream, this company may suit you very well—but be mentally prepared for situations in which the boss’s salary and bonuses are not paid on time.
7. The company acts as if it has a well-designed system, but in reality it has no system whatsoever. Everything is done and changed according to the boss’s mood.
8. You need to keep evidence of conversations with the boss, because afterward the boss may deny agreeing to something and then blame the colleagues for the problem.
9. There is honestly still much more, but I am already exhausted. If you know how to curry favor, dislike doing work, and only talk without taking action, this company should be a good fit for you.
There are sandwiches to eat
1. The company has been established for so long, yet there is 【no complete organizational chart covering all departments】. (Or perhaps they have only just started creating one.
2. 【Excessive “rule by person”】—rules are changed temporarily and verbally, and there is never any basis for them. (Even if there is a screenshot of a Line message.
Because of 【Problem 1】, even though people belong to different departments (and each has their own supervisor), there are always bizarre situations where someone can directly instruct personnel from another department to do things (with the boss’s tacit approval). This happens on a daily basis, and the execution process is always subject to too many human factors.
Whenever anything goes wrong, it is impossible to clarify who is responsible.
3. The boss’s 【time management is extremely terrible】. Whenever something comes to mind, they call and send messages, regardless of whether you are busy, it is a holiday, it is the middle of the night, or you are sick.
4. Treats people as 【functions】 rather than competencies.
From supervisors down to part-time workers, whenever something is currently lacking, you will be asked to handle part of someone else’s work—even if your actual role is A and the task is part B. Your original job responsibilities are ignored. Helping with B brings no benefit, and you are still expected to do your original work properly. (Sometimes B is even in a different department on a different floor.
5. Only wants to solve 【the problem at hand】 instead of addressing structural problems.
For example: Being unable to finish packing shipments is a problem caused by having too many goods and not enough people. However, the person in charge always uses the concept in Problem 4 to repeatedly redistribute people from all over the company. The final result is that a few people benefit, while the consequences are shared among other colleagues who are treated as denominators. As a result, the same problem occurs once every few days and repeats every few weeks.
6. 【The boss likes staying on the front line】.
The person giving orders is always handling miscellaneous tasks—or on the way to handle them—which means that when important scheduling issues or crises arise, the only person who can make decisions is always out of the loop or absent from the scene. Then 【Problem 2】 is highly likely to occur.
7. 【The boss’s frightening workplace EQ】 **Special reminder**
It is commonplace to hear shouting from the second floor while on the first floor. Regardless of whether customers are present, the boss can fly into a rage and loudly berate people at any time. Their emotions are extremely difficult to control.
8. The full package of Problems 1–7 above appears in different combinations every day.
Pros: Colleagues are easy to get along with
Cons:
1. You never know when you will receive your payslip
2. You can receive the same base salary even if you do no work
3. If you submit your resignation, you will not be given a bonus
(This is clearly a violation of the Labor Standards Act)
4. The boss can always casually deny what they said personally.
5. Despite the fact that the packaging is clearly misleading, the company remains indifferent even after being reminded multiple times
This is almost certainly the company I've worked for where nearly all of the store colleagues were easy to get along with. The manager is very patient and keeps teaching us. Although the requirements are strict, they are all within a reasonable range.
Apart from the colleagues and supervisors being easy to get along with, I can't see any future here. It feels like the bonus system keeps changing, and we receive less and less. Overtime pay should be calculated based on the full salary, but it isn't. Don't companies like this ever get reported and fined?
Honestly, there isn't much to say. Some colleagues are nice, but the environment is awful. Who would want to cook food with a strong smell at the place where they work? It was really unbearable. I personally couldn't handle it. It's also a small company, but it's actually quite chaotic.
There are quite a lot of drawbacks. The work environment at the company really isn't very good. When I first went in, I thought it was some kind of warehouse or something. I actually wondered at the time, “Is this the place?” It hardly looks like an office at all—the whole environment feels dark and gloomy. More importantly, when I had just arrived, I thought they should have told me where to put the images or where the folders were. This male PM only replied, “I don't know where it is~~” What exactly is he pretending to be so helpless about? If you send a new employee a request, how would they know where things are? If you've been doing this for so long and still don't know where things are, then what are you doing? I also had no idea what he was actually busy with, because he is very good at talking and rationalizing his own matters to others, without considering other people's perspectives. Anyway, all I could do at the time was smile awkwardly and wonder whether it would be terrible to have to coordinate things with him afterward. The key point is that he said no one works overtime, but I saw everyone working overtime except him—he would leave promptly at five. The boss also trusts him a lot. In addition, their PM tries to save on other expenses, which results in many things being handled poorly. It feels as though he can decide everything. He says he isn't a supervisor, but he acts very much like he wants to be one; for many things, he simply tells other people to do them. As for the boss himself, he is really bad at managing time and has no basic manners. Don't other people's time matter? Is only yours important? He was late to interviews, made other people or vendors wait for meetings, and was even late for meals. Time management is basic courtesy. Even if you're going to be late, you should at least let people know! Also, I often heard employees being yelled at there. His temper is terrible, and he seemed to yell loudly so that everyone would know. Once, I thought it was extremely over the top. They sometimes allow people to eat in the store (Hung Rui Chen), and he yelled at an internal employee in front of customers, frightening the customers away. Do you really think that was appropriate? Again, he yelled loudly enough for many people to hear. Can't you control your volume? Disrupting others also affects their working environment. I heard it far too often—seriously, don't doubt it. He acted as if, whenever the company made money, he would share it with everyone, but I don't think that would actually happen. He also doesn't listen to what you think about many things; he only follows what he wants. The gap is enormous. So if you're thinking of going there, really think it over—it's a typical exploitative boss.
The manager and several supervisors are very good at leading people, especially the manager, who is always tireless in teaching us and helps shield us from a lot of pressure every time.
The scheduling is also very flexible.
Company-mandated activities are usually arranged in great haste. We’ve been talking about this for years, yet it’s still the same. The boss is very emotional, and when company bonuses are paid late, they act as if it’s only natural.
They seem to think that issuing one announcement with everything jumbled together is enough to fob everyone off. It feels increasingly taken for granted that we should work hard to help the company hit its targets.
Judging from the full-time employees, they probably don’t actually earn that much, yet they have to keep working overtime. I don’t want to become a full-time employee at all.
The supervisor and colleagues are very easy to get along with, and everyone helps each other. Even part-time student employees can receive performance bonuses.
Bonuses are often not paid within the announced timeframe, and company events are frequently organized and carried out in a rush.
Coworkers are friendly; supervisors are not.
So terrible that you’ll want to come back every now and then to see whether it has gone under.
Keep up the good work.
The supervisor will teach you as much as they can, and even if they don't understand something, they will discuss it with you seriously.
The atmosphere among colleagues is very good, and everyone works together to solve problems.
There is lots of delicious food.
The company is in a great location, with a very lively area nearby.
The salary is not high, but there is an enormous amount of work covering everything under the sun. The promised performance bonus was not paid at all.
On your first day of work, the boss tells you that they decide how long the probationary period is—probably about three months, depending on your performance.
You have to provide your own computer, and there is no repair subsidy if it breaks down.
Only after leaving the company did I discover that the company had reported my labor and health insurance late, and I still had to pay the National Pension myself.
The supervisor is usually easy to get along with, but when they are in a bad mood at work, they verbally abuse their colleagues.
The environment is not very good. The water has a strange smell, and the way to the restroom feels like walking through a haunted house. The restroom sometimes has its water shut off, so you have to carry a bucket of water over yourself to flush. There are many holes in the ceiling, making the feng shui poor. Many people come to work with colds, fall off their scooters, or are otherwise struggling in life.
I really can't think of any.
The company does not require employees to clock in or out, and overtime is very common. There are major problems with the processes and systems; one person is expected to do the work of three. The workload is completely beyond what I could have imagined. Relationships among colleagues are lax and disorganized. The boss is a typical exploitative employer: if they want you to work overtime and you don't explicitly ask for overtime pay, they pretend nothing happened. They also don't provide dinner when you work overtime, and they don't act like a boss should.
None
The store manager may be newly appointed and may not yet handle emotions well in certain aspects of management, with an overly strong sense of self. It is necessary for frontline sales staff to prioritize customers, but if staff members have any issues, they should be discussed and addressed privately rather than assigning blame in front of customers! Training and tone of communication also need improvement~
