You can learn how to flatter people.

An unprofessional company. Family businesses are the most disgusting. Anyone who wants to learn professionally or has work skills should stay away from this company, or they will humiliate themselves.

Being bullied and physically assaulted by a Vietnamese supervisor, while the boss only verbally supports you in filing a complaint against them. Whatever needs to be done, do it—everything is unrelated to the company.

There are no advantages.

Can leave work on time

1. The water dispenser looks like its filter has never been replaced.

2. The three seasonal bonuses are only available to long-serving employees; the year-end bonus is nonexistent or pitifully small.

3. The boss likes holding meetings, wasting time, and sometimes even taking up lunch breaks and time after work.

4. It is a family-owned company; when you encounter something you don't understand, you have to figure it out yourself—no one will teach you.

5. High turnover among new employees

No one really thinks things through or seriously manages anything, so there’s a high degree of freedom.

White-label products, exploitative old-school bosses, a family business, a lousy water dispenser, an untidy warehouse, piles of scrap, employees are disliked one after another, and high turnover.

The colleagues are easy to get along with; that is the only advantage.

1. Salaries are set at the minimum ratio required by the Labor Standards Act, with the full salary including position allowances and perfect-attendance bonuses.

2. Overtime pay is also calculated at the minimum rate.

3. You have to find your own break time; there is no proper rotation or standardized arrangement. Even during the lunch break, you are often called to work (as a regular practice).

4. Senior management meetings have no rules, procedures, or systems whatsoever. Decisions are made arbitrarily, questions are handled by deflecting responsibility whenever possible, and frontline employees who participate in meetings have a 200% obligation to obey. Ideas and suggestions may be implemented once out of ten times—maybe! Don’t expect too much!

5. (1) The environment is extremely unclean. Foreign workers’ poor habits are subject to no management system, and the space is managed improperly: 200 ping are used as if they were 300 ping, with no concern for whether this is feasible. Frontline employees can only carry out these decisions with great difficulty. The walkways are narrow, seriously violating fire regulations and endangering employee safety! Items are only moved around before safety inspections, wasting labor and time!

(2) Personnel are improperly assigned to handle large, heavy materials and equipment. Shortcuts are always taken, with large numbers of workers used to move everything, disregarding labor safety! Senior management gives instructions to complete Plan 1, then changes it to Plan 2 simply because they dislike or are dissatisfied with the result. They act arbitrarily and have no regard for employees’ hard work. There have already been multiple occupational safety accidents. This is an arbitrary, spoiled-boss management style!

6. There are absolutely no benefits! Benefits are canceled without reason!

Summary:

The benefits are poor, and there is no promotion system whatsoever. You could say there are no advantages. If you are considering joining this family-run company, please think very carefully!

None at all

I happened to see that this company is hiring again. If I didn’t share this, I’d be letting myself down.

1. The work environment is dirty and disorderly; rats and insects can often be seen running around the office.

2. A typical exploitative boss who pays pitifully low wages.

3. The product is advertised as recyclable as No. 4 plastic, but in fact does not comply with regulations.

4. The managers often do not arrive until after 9 or 10 a.m., then expect you to work past regular hours just like them. There is no overtime pay, and leaving on time will get you blacklisted.

5. Meetings are often called right before overtime, last one or two hours, consist entirely of nonsense, and reach no conclusions at all.

6. Advertisements claim cooperation with many major manufacturers, but in fact they have stopped delivering to them, or deliver only a small amount. Even delivering samples is enough for them to claim that they have cooperated.

7. The boss makes grandiose promises with no constructiveness or feasibility.

8. Employees are treated with no respect and may be laid off at any time for all kinds of reasons. Some employees have even been dismissed without any reason.

9. Professional expertise is not respected; whatever the exploitative boss says goes. There are piles of ridiculous policies, as if they were playing house.

10. The entire management team consists of family members, with no management ability at all. When they make mistakes, they play dead and shift the blame to subordinate employees.

11. They often share simplified-Chinese articles about treating people kindly, yet they themselves are the most abusive and exploitative kind of boss, and do not conduct business very cleanly.

12. Basically, the base salary is always NT$22,000, and they use position allowances to bring it up to the salary discussed in the interview. In other words, the company is only willing to pay labor and health insurance contributions at the minimum-wage level. A company like this is really not worth staying at.

13. The automated equipment they claim to have developed themselves: out of 10 units, about 2 will probably break. Those 2 are merely not broken yet. After receiving customer complaints, sales staff go repair those lousy machines themselves, and they may not even repair them properly.

15. The computer assigned to you will be a secondhand computer that is 5–6 years old. If you are lucky, it will run smoothly; otherwise, you will spend most of your time waiting for MIS to fix it.

16. They will force you to go on business trips.

17. The defect rate is probably around 20–30%. Even after customer-complaint meetings, the problems still are not resolved, and next time they will continue sending customers piles of defective junk.

18. The meeting room is filled with patent books, but many of the patents are actually close to expiring. They make a slight mold modification, apply for several patents at once, and then use the number of patents to make grandiose promises to customers or shareholders.

19. The number of foreign workers throughout the company is approximately two to three times the number of Taiwanese employees, making you wonder whether you are working in Vietnam.

20. You will learn absolutely nothing. Under no circumstances should you think about joining first to learn something and then leaving to find another job.

Colleagues get along well.

1. The boss does things entirely according to personal preference, does not respect professional expertise, and considers anything not done his way to be a problem.

2. Makes careless promises to clients.

3. Severely understaffed; one person has to handle the workload of four or five people.

4. Does not respect employees and even insults them to their faces.

5. Job duties are frequently changed according to the boss’s preferences.

6. Particularly fond of holding meetings, but they consist only of the boss explaining at length how he thinks things should be handled. After several hours of rambling, the issue still has not been resolved.

1. Free parking (the location is remote)

2. Most colleagues are easy to get along with

1. A standard exploitative family business from this island nation, with very closed-minded thinking and limited horizons

2. No clear professional responsibilities or so-called division of labor. You are expected to do whatever they feel like assigning you, and may even be told to travel abroad at short notice

3. The environment is very poor—dirty and disorderly, with a high risk of injury

4. The Administration Department deducts leave and wages according to its own discretion. You need to check the calculations carefully when you receive your pay stub

5. The base salary is very low, and wages are sometimes paid late without explanation (the company seems to feel it owes employees no explanation)

6. There are a huge number of company LINE groups. The boss lectures everyone in the groups regardless of weekends or evenings, and likes sending articles and videos in simplified Chinese, requiring everyone to read them and share their thoughts

7. Employees are often forced to accept things through coercive tactics. Whenever there is anything to communicate on weekends or in the evening, they insist on reaching you; many people will even join in and harass you relentlessly until you respond

8. They consider overtime to be expected. If you do not work overtime, they say you are not taking your job seriously. People who clock out on time are often criticized behind their backs, and they may deliberately claim that they needed to find you but that you were never there

9. Management and senior employees take the lead in spreading rumors and stirring up trouble

10. If you do not fight hard for many things, they will brush them aside—for example, overtime pay, business-trip expenses, and business-trip duration (they may send you on a trip without telling you when you can return)

11. The company itself has no clear decision-making direction, and backtracking and self-contradiction happen frequently

12. There is no management ability. The same problems keep recurring, and every day is spent endlessly arguing among internal staff, vendors, and customers

13. They force employees to install two or more communication apps and bombard them nonstop

14. They show absolutely no respect for employees and have poor manners

15. They probe for competitors’ information during interviews

When the 22K program first started, the company hired several recent university graduates, and it was pleasant interacting with people of the same age.

It is a family business, so the boss and the second generation often travel to mainland China and other countries. If you are in the sales department, you may have the opportunity to go along.

There are opportunities to work with large and international companies.

Although the boss is older, his thinking is intelligent and flexible. He often asks people thought-provoking questions (but the answers have to be pleasing to hear).

1. It has all the disadvantages typically found in family businesses. Having ability is less important than sharing the same surname, clan, or religion.

2. After an attractive female colleague joined the company, she became the second-generation boss’s wife.

3. The first-generation boss’s wife often interfered in business matters, creating an insider-versus-outsider dynamic and causing conflicts over business direction and execution. In 2009, several university graduates hired under the 22K program resigned voluntarily because neither their salaries nor their work content were valued. The company disregarded their supervisor’s contributions during the period when he had worked hard to build up the rudimentary factory, and instead believed that the supervisor had incited the naïve university graduates, so they maliciously dismissed him (he was told on the same day not to come back). It also took a long time for the supervisor to receive his severance pay.

4. Because the boss is very domineering, turnover is high, and the company is perpetually hiring.

5. The boss’s wife’s famous saying: “We should look for more university graduates from rural areas—they are more obedient.”

6. The Filipino employees their family hired under some unknown arrangement were sometimes told to operate machinery and then cook for the people in the office.

7. They make grand promises fairly often and seem to have a strong vision, but in reality they feel somewhat like outsiders in the industry. Their main products use No. 7 plastic, which is not recyclable.

8. The location is remote and transportation is inconvenient, with little food available nearby.
