I completely agree with what was said above.

I worked under him for six years.

I went from someone who was not very good at programming

to someone who achieved a modest level of success.

My impression is that

many times, it is the person working under him who thinks they are very professional.

But in reality, their perspective is not broad enough.

Over the years, I have seen many examples.

He does not require a culture of flattery, either.

As long as you can convince him, he will listen to you. Rather than insisting that your own opinion is unquestionably correct.

If you are willing to try, he will be willing to give you opportunities and let you try all sorts of things.

Also, whenever I had questions about the company's direction, I would ask him directly why he wanted to take that direction. Based on my experience at the time, he was willing to spend time explaining it to you.

As for saying that he does not understand programming, all I can say is that it is true he has not written code for many years, but he understands the underlying logic and concepts very well.

Although working under him was very demanding, the experience he gave me enabled me to find a job in Tainan paying NT$80,000 a month—and I get to sleep until I naturally wake up.

If you ask me why I left, I was single when I started working with him. During the final few years, I married my wife, and she threatened to divorce me unless I moved back to Tainan.

Sometimes the general manager can be a bit emotional.

But he admits his mistakes, and I have experienced that firsthand.

The space is very large

I feel the same as the person who left the comment above.

Reason for leaving:

The general manager does not respect people.

He is noticeably nicer to female employees and clearly treats male employees differently.

There are no systems in place, and he often says that he has been a general manager for 30 years (when it has actually only been over 20 years).

But

How can there be so little structure?

Also,

There is no professionalism. He handles every opinion raised in a one-man-show manner.

The supervisors are even worse; they have not been given any authority. Looking at how those supervisors are treated is truly speechless.

Another thing is that he often makes physical contact with female employees while joking around. It depends on the person,

but personally, I think it is really over the line. This was also a reason I left.

1. Easy to get along

2. It feels great to curry favor

1. The general manager doesn’t understand technology, project management, or business operations; likes young women; assigns work arbitrarily; gives misguided directions; doesn’t respect professional expertise; and likes to lie to and deceive clients and employees.

2. The company’s systems are chaotic, evaluations have no basis, people the general manager likes receive maximum raises, there are no benefits, and expired beverages are given to employees.

3. R&D: More than half are bloodsuckers, and more than half have no more than three years of experience. Inexperienced R&D staff develop poor work attitudes and a lack of responsibility because of the company’s strange culture; they work only when they feel like it. The general manager dislikes capable people, while experienced employees have no real authority.

4. PMs: Almost none have relevant experience, and most are unable to answer even basic questions. They are very busy every day, but not doing what PMs should be doing. The general manager dislikes capable people, and their apparent purpose is to serve as the general manager’s scapegoats.

5. Customer service: They rely on the general manager’s favoritism, have an extremely poor work attitude, make mistakes at a very high rate, and complain about other departments every day.

6. HR: The general manager frequently assigns them strange tasks. Staffing is clearly insufficient, and despite being a fintech company, the internal systems are not automated.

7. Sales: The general manager drove out a group of people, and those left behind have little experience—again, they are people the general manager favors.

Suggestion: Go work for another company.

1. There is a chance of hitting the jackpot with the salary

2. The work tasks are not very stressful

1. The boss is very disrespectful

2. The work tasks are disorganized

3. It is difficult to improve your work skills

Inside the company:

1. The boss does not understand technology but often pretends to and insists on giving suggestions, resulting in strange things being made

2. Because the boss does not understand technology and conducts interviews personally, some strange people end up being hired

3. The company has many newcomers with no relevant experience, resulting in many things being done haphazardly; the boss relies heavily on newcomers

4. As long as you finish reading beginner books on the relevant technologies available on the market, you are probably the strongest person there

5. Every year, many people say they are going to leave, but someone always ends up staying; now they are all loyal employees who have accumulated many years at the company

Other departments:

PM department:

Most are people who were persuaded to stay by other units and transferred to PM roles. Their knowledge of PM-related matters can be described as nonexistent. One person genuinely has PM experience, but unfortunately has no authority and is not valued. The other PMs and the boss also fail to recognize their abilities, and the R&D colleagues they work with have a weak foundation, so it is difficult for them to perform well.

McDonald's department:

Let's just call it the McDonald's department! Decode it yourself. One person in this department is a joke played by God: the soul of management was placed in a worker's body, turning them into management's enforcer. They stay at the company through loyalty rather than ability.

Suggestions:

1. Ask for a higher salary during the interview—that's the way to go. Don't be afraid; maybe you will be the one who hits the jackpot!

2. Most of the employees still at the company are people who keep their dignity outside the company; they trade being berated by the boss for a salary. It is difficult to learn anything after joining.

The salary is indeed quite generous.

I wonder how much longer this general manager will continue making a mess.

I wrote code for more than half a year. There wasn't much pressure, but it looks like the company doesn't really have any direction.

The PM also seems to be completely out of the loop.

Does having no pressure count as an advantage??? XD

Everyone thinks this general manager has some serious problems.

Although he has been somewhat well-known in the industry for a while, as mentioned in the comments above, he really doesn't know how to lead a company. The team atmosphere is very poor.

He is also very good at blaming this and that, as if he thinks no one knows what the actual problems are.

For now, it also looks like the company still isn't making money (this is what the general manager said). What does he mean by saying that they aren't making money and need to rely on some kind of IoT???

It also seems like the funding is almost depleted.

At the moment, it looks like he is retaining people by giving them raises; otherwise, a group of people would basically have left after the New Year holiday.

In short: He is the reason you shouldn't join.

The company’s interior décor and color scheme are very comfortable. On the surface, they say there is no overtime, but after the interview they will say that your salary expectations are too high. The supervisor says he hates people being loud in the office, regardless of whether they are right or wrong, and also extremely dislikes people being late. Otherwise, I don’t know much. (Small company)

The interview was serious.

The salary for entry-level employees is surprisingly generous.

The general manager controls everything, and the managers below them have very little actual authority.

Things are a complete mess.

Today they say something is important; tomorrow they immediately reverse course and say to stop what you’re doing and deal with this project first.

The general manager also always talks about how many years of experience they have,

but what they say is always enough to make you think, “Are you serious?”

They show very little respect for professional expertise.

In addition, this company seems to lean toward a culture of flattery (personal impression).

People who speak loudly aren’t necessarily more capable.

The above is purely my personal impression.

You can join and savor the experience for yourself.
