They want employees with a broad range of abilities, but the salary range they can offer is very narrow, so just use the range on the job platform as a reference.
The hiring process is cumbersome. The basic information form is extremely detailed, and even questions about future plans must be answered. However, after arriving for the in-person interview, I discovered that they had not reviewed it. The experience was unpleasant; those who mind this may want to think it over carefully.
Supplement: The salary eventually approved was just as low as expected.
When I replied asking for an adjustment, they said they would submit it for further consideration, but several months have passed without any follow-up, and the matter has simply been ignored. For a company with this kind of recruiting attitude, I sincerely recommend that everyone think twice.
Suitable for people with no other options.
1. They treat employees like easy targets, requiring you to travel a long distance to support an information technology exhibition and return the same day, without counting the commuting time as work hours.
2. The company sets the air conditioning temperature very high and then says employees cannot endure hardship.
3. Every day, you have to take inventory and put hundreds of products on the shelves. This is the most infuriatingly stupid work I have ever done.
4. Employees compete with one another for sales and engage in backstabbing.
5. Definitely do not go to a large store; the pay is actually lower than at a small store.
The company's attitude is basically, 'If you quit, there are plenty of other fresh easy targets to take your place.' If you have other options, don't stay.

Job – E-commerce administrative staff in a certain region
1. Taking time off is very easy.
2. Suitable for people looking for an easy job until retirement, or those with a “I’ve given up” mindset~ The company generally won’t fire you.
Traditional corporate culture:
There are many “you can’t” and “you’re not allowed to.”
For example: You can’t eat breakfast, and you can’t laugh in the office.
Supervisors consider “laughing” to be slacking off.
Laziness among long-term employees:
They only act when the supervisor tells them what to do and do not proactively improve.
They secretly play mobile games or computer games remotely during work hours (if you have a good seat, you won’t be noticed).
They are very good at pretending to be busy, looking as though they are working hard when they actually are not doing much (extremely good at putting on an act, and have never produced impressive results).
The more capable you are, the more work you get:
If you handle things too well, people will instead question you about all sorts of things.
If you manage online shopping or business operations too well, you may also be asked to handle more.
People who do not improve are actually the most secure, while still receiving their bonuses.
Suggestion: As soon as you join, learn from the long-term employees and slack off, because even if you do an excellent job, the bonus is distributed the same way, while long-term employees receive more of the bonus.
Supervisor problems (1):
They tend to target capable employees and make trouble for them.
Do not finish tasks too quickly, to avoid being seen as having nothing to do.
Suggestion: Do whatever the supervisor tells you to do, and nothing more. Stretch a five-minute task out so that it takes an hour to complete. Pretend to be busy, repeatedly say “I’m very busy,” or show impatience, so the supervisor thinks you are busy and will not come bother you.
Supervisor problems (2):
The boundaries for everything keep changing: one moment something is allowed, and the next it is not, with no logic at all.
They appear to value logic, but actually have none.
The same issue may be asked about four or five times; explaining it is the same as saying nothing.
They point out a problem without explaining why, leaving people feeling annoyed and under great pressure.
Supervisor problems (3):
Having too many tasks leads to mistakes, which the supervisor will blow out of proportion indefinitely.
They require meaningless error reports, wasting time (writing these is incredibly annoying).
They will not examine where the problem occurred in your work process.
No matter what happens, it is always the employee’s fault.
1. People with good sales ability can earn additional bonuses.
P.S. The sales bonus depends on the store level.
1. The supervisor likes to sow discord and create factions; regular staff members are generally the ones who get targeted.
2. Pressure from individual performance (varies from person to person; it doesn't affect people who enjoy challenges).
3. Some colleagues are relatives or well-connected, so someone will protect them when something goes wrong. Ordinary employees get worked to death and berated relentlessly.
4. The supervisor engages in psychological manipulation and verbal bullying.
5. There are many difficult customers.
6. When there aren't enough staff, the supervisor refuses to hire more people. One person has to handle the work of several departments, and the supervisor will complain about the individual's declining performance.
The experienced staff at the store I worked at were willing to teach newcomers.
Half of the reason was that they were tired of the work and wanted to delegate it to newcomers; the other half was that doing more work for low pay would not result in much more money, so why do more?
You won't get hassled by the store manager when requesting days off.
Compared with my previous job at Sunfar, the work environment was genuinely relaxed and pleasant.
If this is your first job, you can give it a try, but don't stay too long.
Just treat it as a way to gain some basic sales experience.
1. There is no formal employee training.
The store manager teaches one way, experienced employee B teaches another, and experienced employee C teaches yet another.
They all say that the others' methods will cause problems.
2. Taking inventory and changing prices every day is a waste of time. In particular, when changing prices, you have to remember the dates when the special prices for those products end. When the time comes, you have to remove them from the system yourself; the system will not bring them up automatically.
3. The front- and back-end systems are very cumbersome and their logic is not very well designed. Sometimes the main categories and subcategories are unrelated. Clicking the wrong thing or pressing repeatedly can cause the system to crash and require a restart. You also have to keep an eye on the products customers have ordered every day. When goods are checked in, the system does not indicate whether they are customer-ordered items. If they are not picked in time, other colleagues who do not know about the orders may put them on the shelves for sale. Returns and exchanges cannot be completed in a single operation from the front end; you have to switch repeatedly between the front and back ends to finish the process.
4. The employee onboarding exam asks what the chairman looks like. I'm not sure what knowing what the chairman looks like has to do with sales or work efficiency.
If you’re not short on money, you can come here to pass the time.
Low pay—only the legally mandated amount.
Taking inventory, changing prices, and changing aisles will make you question your life choices.
Malicious competition for sales is rampant, and no one manages it.
“No normal person” would ever want to stay long-term.
None
The chairwoman of the Kaohsiung head office has a very bad temper. Please be aware of this before joining.
In addition to handling official business, you also have to deal with personal matters, including helping collect rent for the chairwoman’s property outside the office... as well as car insurance and so on...
1. Once you get familiar with the job, it becomes easy (boring).
2. The relationship among colleagues is fairly harmonious.
1. The pay is very low, the hours are very long, and the job will also take up your break time. You may even leave work late (overtime of less than one hour does not count as overtime; for example, if you work overtime for 59 minutes, it is treated as if you did not work overtime at all).
2. The year-end bonus amounts to one month’s salary, but it is paid in two installments: before the Lunar New Year and on the 10th of the month after the Lunar New Year. If you resign before receiving the second installment, your year-end bonus will be deducted.
3. The company only tells you about the good parts and does not mention the bad parts at all.
The branch I work at is what they call a large store. The advantage is that shifts are divided into:
Early shift: 10:00–19:00
Late shift: 13:30–22:30
Days off are scheduled—eight days off per month.
When there is a national holiday, you are given what they call a compensatory day off for the national holiday.
There is also annual leave.
The year-end bonus is one month’s salary.
The salary is very low. The base salary is only 21,009 (before deductions for labor and health insurance).
There is a severe lack of staff. If there is a staffing shortage on a given day, you may have to work a full-day shift from 10:00 to 22:30 (with no overtime pay, only compensatory leave).
If you work on a national holiday, you only get compensatory leave, not double pay.
You definitely have to come to work on typhoon days.
Only if the wind and rain are too severe will they tell you to find your own way home.
There are so-called performance targets: Office, extended warranty, operating systems, mobile plans, and add-on purchase rates.
If you fail to meet the targets, your pay is deducted (according to each store manager; the rules differ from store to store).
As long as a customer complaint arises, it is your fault no matter what.
Senior management emphasizes that they do charity work and requires employees to take photos with customers while holding FEDS charity banners. Those who take too few photos will be criticized.

In short, I think that if you are not short of money and can tolerate the higher-ups’ brainlessness, then come work here. For other information, you can refer to “靠北順發”.
After working as an employee last year, I discovered that there was a lot more beneath the surface. It felt like they were only thinking about how to cut costs by using fewer employees. Please don’t place too much trust in management, and be careful. Think twice before accepting a full-time position.
