I have worked at your company for a little over a year. The company environment is fairly good, but unfortunately, the internal systems are overly complicated and chaotic. Rules are changed on a whim, and when subordinates have problems, no one provides timely assistance. They only step in to criticize and issue disciplinary actions after things have gotten out of hand, while telling other people to help you. No one will specifically guide you on technical matters or professional knowledge; please figure things out on your own, search for information online, and ask the technicians on site yourself. The main reason I stayed for a year was to use this opportunity to learn more professional knowledge and practical know-how. Those who lack initiative or need others to proactively teach them are not suited for this job. Here is the key point: business matters may still come and disturb your rest late at night after work. If you do not handle them or leave them on read without replying, you will immediately be singled out the next day. Job seekers, please think carefully. In conclusion: If you are willing to put in the effort, you can still learn a lot at this company, but you must rely on yourself.
The systems are terrible, the supervisors are terrible, and the compensation is terrible.
Sometimes lunch is provided, and the office environment is good.
There is no overtime pay, and you almost always have to go to construction sites for measurements, site inspections, and tracking construction progress.
The year-end bonus is never more than one month’s salary! Choose carefully.
None at all
Ms. Lin, the interviewer at your company, was extremely arrogant. If you’re going to be that arrogant, don’t invite people to interviews—just do the work yourself. The pay is low, yet the position comes with an all-inclusive responsibility system. Her attitude was already so terrible before I even joined, and the interview also included a bunch of question-based tests. It was basically testing the limits of employees. It was truly terrifying. I’m helping everyone avoid this place.
There is a company-provided lunch.
I have currently been working at Daya Kitchenware for less than a month. On my second or third day, the company’s successor told me under the pretext of a meeting:
“I think I negotiated your salary too high during the interview!”
At the time, I evaded the issue without addressing it directly, but I felt that the company’s senior manager lacked integrity. As for the work, the job duties described during the interview were completely different from the actual duties. They would assign you other work and then criticize your performance based on those duties. After I had been employed for two weeks, HR interviewed me about my poor performance and demanded that my salary be reduced by NT$5,000. There were also unreasonable claims such as “not being cooperative,” supposedly because I was not proactive enough in helping transfer phone calls. But after only 14 days on the job, with no one training me, how could there be any cooperation?
After this process, I went through about two more interviews,
and then they said they wanted to change my work location…
None of these changes were documented on any official change form; everything was handled through discussions with HR. They also use interview records to protect the company (and she will pressure you to sign them).
In the end, they did not even know where to assign you, but because the company was short-staffed, they assigned me front-desk duties: handling call transfers, customer service, transferring messages through the official LINE@ account, and administrative work for the boss’s wife’s direct-selling business…
The company environment is pretty good, and lunch is provided.
The atmosphere at the company is dull, and the turnover rate is very high. I originally interviewed for an administrative and sales assistant position, but recently the work I’ve been doing has been unrelated tasks.
If you can’t leave work on time, other colleagues will single you out, which I find baffling. Even when there’s nothing to do, you’re expected to pretend to be busy. It’s quite remarkable that more than forty people have left within a year. Anyone considering joining should think twice.
Spacious lobby, but there was no air conditioning—it was extremely hot.
The company building looks very impressive from the outside, but the interview lobby inside had no air conditioning (it was unbearably hot). During the interview, a woman who appeared to be the general manager came over and asked, “Hi, what position are you interviewing for, and what kind of work have you done before?” After I answered, she inexplicably walked away, and then the actual interviewer arrived.
The interviewer was the department manager. The position required going to the factory in Houli to conduct inventory checks (supposedly once a month?). Saturdays required working rotating shifts (also supposedly about once a month), but otherwise holidays were days off. The company said meals were provided, with a one-hour lunch break, and working hours were 8:00–17:30.
The interview itself went smoothly, and I received a job offer that same day. The HR department did not send a formal confirmation email and only notified me by phone, saying that emails would be blocked, so they did not send one.
Only after reporting for work did I find out that the position was an “outdoor” position with rotating shifts and did not follow a two-day weekend schedule, which was different from what had been said during the interview.
I arrived early and ate breakfast in the dining area. The company’s general manager (female) saw me and said not to bring breakfast to the company. She also reprimanded HR, saying that they had failed to tell the new employee not to eat breakfast at the company.
The extra 0.5 hours are break periods from 10:00–10:15 and 15:00–15:15.
The company requires employees to wear black or white tops as uniforms, and female employees are required to wear makeup.
Many beautiful kitchen and bar displays inside, and the common areas are comfortable
During my interview with HR in July 2015, the interview details were not truthful. I originally applied for a marketing planning position, but when I reported for work, I was transferred to drafting instead. The veterans had arrogant attitudes, saying that after three days here, you no longer counted as a newcomer. When providing guidance, they made sarcastic remarks (another form of workplace bullying). Even during the 10-minute break, you were not allowed to leave your seat or the company. They openly stated that the old chairwoman did not like seeing employees away from their workstations. The company culture was antiquated and harsh; there was not even a snack cabinet in the pantry. What was frightening was that the annual number of people leaving reached 53 (including me). I sincerely do not recommend that anyone go there and become a victim.
Basically, the employees get along well.
Except for Mr./Ms. Zhang in accounting, who is incredibly calculating.
1. The actual job duties are different from what was described in the interview. If you refuse, they will even get offended and say that you are being picky about which tasks you do.
2. Overtime is unpaid. Even part-time workers do not receive 1.33 times their pay for overtime. They will only give you one hour of compensatory time off.
3. On typhoon days, they will even tell you to use one of your regularly scheduled days off to make up for it. In other words, even if everyone gets the day off because of a typhoon, if you were originally supposed to have eight days off that month and all employees were scheduled off that day, you can only schedule the remaining seven days off. Great, huh?
A company that randomly takes advantage of people like this is not worth staying at, haha.
Meals provided; the environment is okay.
They informed me by phone after the interview that I was hired, and we also agreed on the salary. It was not until the afternoon of my first day that they told me the salary was NT$2,000 less than the agreed-upon hiring salary, asking, “Can you accept it? If not, you don’t have to come in.” Please think carefully.
They send people out for a change of scenery, which is a good thing.
One person is expected to do the work of ten, including tasks outside your job responsibilities.
If something isn’t done properly, they say it’s because you lack ability.
The training they make sound so good during the interview is completely fictional.
They even claimed in the media that employee salaries start at 30,000.
In reality, you’d have a better chance dreaming about it (even beverage delivery pays more). They only exploit workers to fatten their own company.
No wonder the employee turnover rate is extremely high.
If you’re not naturally able to endure hardship, do not come here under any circumstances.
None
There is no system in place, and the issues with applying for overtime pay are serious. The number of cases handled simultaneously is considered a measure of work efficiency. They do not respect professionals or construction site workers. Think carefully before joining.
The interview space was comfortable and spacious.
The interviewer was a director at the company who conducted the interview in an arrogant, interrogative manner. They sarcastically criticized the candidate for having too much work experience. If specific experience was required, they should have informed HR of the desired candidate profile before inviting the candidate to interview. If the candidate was not a suitable fit, there was still no need to be harsh and caustic during the interview—the candidate had not even been hired and owed them nothing.
This company has integrity issues!!! Job seekers and companies considering doing business with this company should look into the fact that it has been sued by many construction companies!!
