I also just left recently, and a lot of people have really left lately.
The supervisor is extremely forceful and dictatorial. They neither respect nor trust employees, and will pit Store A against Store B by speaking badly about it.
The stores discuss this privately. During the interview, they said the position was for a management role, but after joining, it turned out to be a store position. They come up with all kinds of excuses to say what you have not done well and that you cannot meet the company’s expectations. They are inconsistent and keep changing what they say. Everyone knows privately that they do not acknowledge what they themselves have said. When told about the stores’ situation, they ignore it, but then say the stores are not clean and fine them. They said they wanted to help the company implement a system and hoped the stores would cooperate; when no one wanted to deal with them, they accused employees of only caring about money and working only when paid. They act entirely according to their own subjective preferences. Having just been promoted, they manage this way to make themselves look good. Everyone is physically and mentally exhausted. We do not understand why the company promoted someone like this, and more people will probably leave in the future.

I also went for an interview there.
It was truly unprofessional.
They damaged their own employer brand image.
I clearly applied for position A, and HR’s reply also referred to position A.
However, during the interview, the hiring manager first said that my qualifications were insufficient for position A (did the recruiter not review my résumé?), and then asked whether I would consider position B.
If I wanted position B, I would have applied for it.
They also changed the position being interviewed for without notifying me.
They truly showed no respect for their own professionalism, nor for others.
If you join this company, they will not respect other people’s professional expertise either.
Can't think of any
1. Low salary
2. The boss added NT$10,000 to the year-end party raffle prize, but I actually received only NT$5,000
3. Job changes and increased workload; the promised salary adjustment was completely just an empty promise
4. Deliberately reassigned employees to pressure them into resigning
5. There are new rules every week, and eventually even the supervisors themselves don't understand the rules
Very close to the MRT station
The work is very boring. Think twice before accepting the offer.
The interviewer has extensive experience and seemed very professional. There was constant laughter in the office, and the atmosphere was good.
I interviewed for the position of sales consultant. The base salary is okay, and the bonus depends on individual performance. The company sells warehouses. According to the interviewer, the company already has a customer list, so there is a good opportunity to earn a high salary by closing deals. However, I previously worked in residential property sales, and the commissions there really cannot be compared with those here. But compared with general B2C sales, I think the conditions are quite good. Sharing this for everyone’s reference.
The position I interviewed for was a retail sales consultant, and the overall atmosphere throughout the interview was quite good. The interviewer was young and open-minded, and I could sense the open-minded style of an emerging industry. They also gave clear answers to the questions I raised during the interview. What was more distinctive was that they did not focus exclusively on the company’s strengths; they also mentioned areas where the company still needs to improve. I thought this was quite positive, as it gave me the impression that the company is genuinely committed to its operations.
As mentioned above, because the company is part of an emerging industry, its scale is continuing to expand rapidly. The company is growing quickly, expanding its workforce, and handling a large volume of business. The advantage is that there is no need for cold calling, as the company provides customer leads, allowing you to focus on selling services to clients. New employees also receive comprehensive training upon joining. Overall, I think this would be quite suitable for people who are driven and eager to strive for performance-based bonuses. I am currently waiting for the interview results, and I will share the good news with everyone if I receive it.
Flexible working hours
The position is based on a responsibility system, with no overtime pay
The accounting department has a poor work atmosphere; the supervisor is aggressive and disrespectful toward others
The accounting department controls the company’s finances and computer systems, so many things require asking accounting for help
Insults newcomers and adopts a domineering, imperious attitude toward other departments and retail stores
It is utterly baffling that the company requires employees to use newly opened personal bank accounts to transfer company funds instead of using a company account
Instances of barking orders and loudly arguing occur repeatedly.
Flexible hours and a free environment—the only two advantages. That’s it.
Anyone thinking about taking a job at this company really needs to think it through carefully!
The boss’s standards for appointing managers are extremely bizarre; managers are usually parachuted in from outside.
You can know nothing about the company’s industry and still talk grandly and make up ridiculous suggestions.
If you want to earn a high salary at this company, all you need is a mouth good at making things up and painting grand pictures—the boss falls for that.
The company has very little regard for entry-level employees, and the pay is extremely low: a base salary of NT$22,000 including perfect-attendance pay—no exaggeration!
Performance bonuses are available if you make sales, but it’s not like every month is New Year.
However, if your sales are too good and you receive too much bonus, your manager may even make trouble for you. Strange, isn’t it?
The hiring standards are extremely peculiar: people without a professional background can do work in professional fields, such as accounting.
The turnover rate among store sales staff is extremely high. There is no comprehensive training; new employees train new employees. Senior employees are not respected, and managers are authoritarian and do not accept opposing opinions.
Employees have almost no sense of identification with or loyalty to the company.
Frequently replacing on-site service staff is also highly irresponsible toward customers.
As several people mentioned above said, the company “gives people opportunities,” but in reality, the HR manager simply couldn’t find enough candidates to interview, so they hire anyone who comes along.
In short, if you’re preparing for civil service exams or are temporarily unemployed and want to earn some pocket money, you could consider it.
Haha.
Besides the supervisor, they also had two related staff members join the interview at the same time. It felt like they were taking this position very seriously, and the questions they asked were also very in-depth and professional.
Before going to the interview, I even called to confirm the time. As a result, I arrived at the location 10 minutes early, but they still made me wait for half an hour... It seems this company’s attitude toward punctuality is rather...

The head office operates under a responsibility-based system (there is no clocking in or out, and false working hours are still reported during labor inspections).
There is almost no training.
The systems for salaries, bonuses, and so on are not transparent (no employment contract is signed).
Many people apply for back-office positions but are recruited and then end up doing store work plus miscellaneous tasks for the head office.
Employees are treated with very little respect (if they want to transfer you to another department, they do; if they want to demote you and cut your pay, they do).
They claim to communicate transparently, but whenever you ask about a common issue, you receive a private response.
Company policies never consider how store staff are supposed to implement them, and there are no supporting measures; when problems arise, frontline staff are blamed first.
Supervisors appear to have a good relationship with you, but speak terribly about you behind your back.
In short, if you want to be treated with respect at work, do not come here!
The office environment is nice, and relationships among colleagues are okay.
The salary is so low that it will make you question your life choices. The starting salary for someone with a master’s degree from a national university is 25.
Although there are flexible start and end times, even if you arrive early, you generally cannot leave early, and there is no overtime pay.
Based on observation, it seems that staying at the company for half a year is enough to be considered a veteran. Most people have less than one year of tenure, and except for senior managers, salaries seem to be quite low.
Some departments are understaffed and require cross-departmental support. However, after giving you a quick explanation and handing the work over to you, they only keep watching to see when it will be finished. They tell you to ask if you do not understand, but then tell you to ask someone else instead of them because they are busy and have many unfinished tasks—yet they keep chatting and leave work earlier than you do.
Most colleagues are easy to get along with
More flexible working hours
The policies are not transparent
New hires are offered very low salaries
It is essentially a responsibility-based system (often requiring you to leave work late), with no additional pay
The salary ceiling is low
When I went for the interview, the manager was very kind and listened carefully to my answers. They also provided a lot of constructive advice and analysis based on my responses, which made me feel valued. I also felt that working under this manager would allow me to learn a lot about the professional skills I want to develop. I hope to successfully join this company and learn and grow together.
