Sales staff are paid the statutory minimum base salary, with no subsidies for fuel, parking fees, or highway ETC. There are four lengthy, meaningless sales meetings every week; apart from Wednesday, sales meetings must be held every morning on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. In reality, these sales meetings are simply “reading work diaries” and reporting performance—lengthy, meaningless, and lacking any focus or conclusions. The company forces sales performance to be recorded on an installment basis. For example, if a customer pays NT$250,000 in full today and the advertising period is one year, the company insists on dividing the NT$250,000 in performance across 12 months instead of recording it in the month payment is received or the campaign is completed. The company claims this is to prevent problems with performance calculations if a customer terminates the contract and cancels the campaign midway, but in reality it amounts to exploiting the sales staff. Deputy General Manager Chen of the sales department has long been out of touch with the current market environment, is unable to lead the sales department, and cannot provide any constructive advice. Every month, sales staff must personally report the performance from that month’s advertising clients; without submitting the report, they will not be paid. Salary statements are also not proactively provided, and sales staff often have to request them from the company before receiving them.

Apart from Wednesday, sales meetings are held every morning from Monday through Tuesday and Thursday through Friday. In plain terms, these sales meetings are just about “reciting work logs” and reporting performance—long-winded, meaningless, and lacking any focus or conclusions. The company forces sales performance to be recorded on an installment basis. For example, if a customer pays NT$250,000 in full today and the advertising campaign runs for one year, the company requires the NT$250,000 performance to be divided by 12 months rather than being recorded in the month payment is received or the month the project is completed. The company claims this is to avoid problems calculating sales performance if a customer breaches the contract and terminates the campaign midway, but in reality it amounts to exploiting the sales staff.

Sales staff receive only the statutory minimum base salary, with no reimbursement for fuel, parking fees, or highway ETC; there are four meaningless, lengthy sales meetings every week. Except for Wednesday, sales meetings must be held every morning from Monday through Tuesday and Thursday through Friday. In plain terms, these sales meetings are just “reading work logs” and reporting performance results—lengthy, meaningless, and entirely lacking focus or conclusions. Sales performance is forcibly recorded by the company on an installment basis. For example, if a customer pays NT$250,000 in full today and the advertising campaign runs for one year, the company requires the NT$250,000 in performance to be divided over 12 months instead of being recorded in the month payment is received or the month the deal is completed. The company claims this is to prevent issues with calculating sales performance if a customer terminates the contract and takes down the campaign midway, but in reality it amounts to exploiting the sales staff. Deputy General Manager Chen of the sales department has long been out of touch with current market conditions, is unable to lead the sales department, and cannot provide any constructive advice. Every month, sales staff must independently report the performance from that month’s advertising clients; if they do not submit the report, they do not get paid. Salary statements are also not provided proactively, and sales staff often have to request them from the company before receiving them.

Sales staff are paid the statutory minimum base salary, with no subsidies whatsoever for fuel, parking fees, or national highway ETC; there are four lengthy and meaningless sales meetings every week. Apart from Wednesday, sales meetings are held every morning on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. In plain terms, these sales meetings are just “reading work logs” and reporting performance—lengthy, meaningless, and lacking any focus or conclusions; sales performance is forcibly allocated by the company across multiple periods. For example, if a client pays NT$250,000 in full today and the advertising campaign runs for one year, the company requires the NT$250,000 in performance to be divided across 12 months rather than recorded in the month payment is received or the month the deal is closed. The company claims this is to avoid complications in calculating sales performance if a client breaches the contract and cancels the campaign midway, but in reality it amounts to exploiting the sales staff; Deputy General Manager Chen of the sales department has long been out of touch with the current market environment, is unable to lead the sales department, and cannot offer any constructive suggestions; sales staff must report the performance from that month’s advertising clients themselves every month. If they do not submit the report, they will not be paid, and pay statements are not sent proactively either—sales staff often have to request them from the company before they are provided.

Sales staff are paid the statutory minimum base salary, with no subsidies whatsoever for fuel, parking fees, or National Freeway ETC; there are four lengthy, meaningless sales meetings every week.

Sales staff are paid the statutory minimum base salary, with no subsidies whatsoever for fuel, parking, or National Freeway ETC fees; there are four meaningless, lengthy sales meetings every week. Except on Wednesdays, sales meetings must be held every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday morning. In short, these sales meetings consist of “reciting work logs” and reporting performance—lengthy, meaningless, and completely lacking in focus or conclusions. The company forcibly spreads sales performance recognition over time. For example, if a client pays NT$250,000 in full today and the advertising campaign runs for one year, the company requires the NT$250,000 in performance to be divided across 12 months rather than recognizing it in the month of payment or the month the project is completed. The company claims this is to avoid problems with performance calculations if a client cancels the campaign midway, but in reality it amounts to exploiting the sales staff. Deputy General Manager Chen of the sales department has long been out of touch with the current market environment, is unable to lead the sales department, and cannot offer any constructive advice.

Salary statements are also not provided proactively, and sales staff often have to request them from the company before they are given one.

Every month, sales staff must submit a report of the current month’s performance from advertising clients themselves; if they do not submit it, they will not be paid. Detailed pay statements are also not provided proactively, and sales staff often have to request them from the company before receiving them.

There are four lengthy, meaningless sales meetings every week; apart from Wednesday, sales meetings are held every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday morning. In plain terms, these meetings are just about "reading work journals" and reporting performance—lengthy, meaningless, and with no focus or conclusions. The company forces sales performance to be recorded in installments. For example, if a client pays NT$250,000 in full today and the advertising campaign runs for one year, the company requires the NT$250,000 performance to be divided over 12 months, rather than recorded in the month payment is received or the month the contract is completed. The company claims this is to avoid performance-calculation issues if a client breaches the contract and cancels the campaign midway, but in reality it is a disguised form of exploitation of the sales staff. Deputy General Manager Chen of the sales department has long been out of touch with current market conditions, is unable to lead the sales department, and cannot offer any constructive advice. Every month, sales staff must personally report the performance generated by that month's advertising clients; without a report, they receive no pay. Detailed salary statements are also not issued proactively, and sales staff often have to request them from the company before they are provided.
