Um⋯⋯⋯*》¥^_^ It should be someone who knows how to nod along and flatter. People with no ability can still draw high salaries here; this is the headquarters of market goods. It can hardly be called fashionable. With a useless person at the helm, I don’t think it will last much longer!

The roots are already rotten! I strongly agree with the analyses from several senior colleagues above—they’re all true! This is an unfashionable company intoxicated by its own little well. Talented people with ideas will turn their frustration inward, become idiots, and wear away their souls!⋯⋯Keep away from strangers⋯ It’s just a zoo—a terrible company that doesn’t understand fashion and only knows how to plagiarize. The people who remain are all a chaotic mess; it’s impossible to name a single advantage. As long as you win the affection of the two old bosses, even if you’re useless, you can seize power and become a celebrity 👩‍👩‍👦‍👦

Here’s the conclusion: Wahahahaha

Long live useless people earning high salaries! Long live, long live!! (raising both hands)

Low prices near the company

Kiway has many systems, but its culture is very rigid.

Many systems...?! Actually, there are no systems.

You ask me where to find the company's policies?

There aren't any!

Whenever a new manager comes in, they change things,

and once they leave, everything returns to how it was before.

For decades, things have been repeatedly revised but never institutionalized. That's because they are too institutionalized—the two owners would have no room to bluff the employees.

If they didn't bluff the employees, they would have to establish everything according to government standards! How could that work!

The new manager is just a smokescreen.

When the new manager is too professional, too deeply involved, too serious, or too disobedient, it's time to say “say 881” to them.

For a concrete description of the company's system: Whatever the first-generation owners say goes. The two of them are the company's system—they are everything.

Job seekers who want a lively pace or atmosphere at work, and who want to follow legal and concrete management policies, may be disappointed and resentful.

Kiway has no civilization; everything is governed by people.

The two first-generation owners are everything at Kiway.

They have the final say.

Let's see whether this general manager, whose surname starts with L,

is still here at the end of 2021.

Let's continue watching................

After staying for a long time, feeling that my self-cultivation is better than the boss’s is also a sense of accomplishment.

To be honest, Chi Wei is an old company with several decades of history, and its salaries are at the low end of the industry. I started at around 40K and, after many years, am still at around 40K. There is absolutely no opportunity or system for adjustments. If a department manager has no influence, they are basically just waiting out retirement from the day they start.

Working at Chi Wei means accepting the 18th-century management culture of the founding husband-and-wife bosses. There are many veteran employees in the company. I don’t dare complain about my 40K salary, because these veteran (fossil-level) employees have worked for 20 or 30 years and earn only 30K, 40K, or 50K. Is this a retirement home?

Chi Wei’s royal relatives and aristocrats start at 50K. Can’t use a computer? No problem~ Insufficient expertise? No problem~ No common sense or basic standards? None of that matters~

Chi Wei is a parasitic family business that lives off the older generation: other people’s salaries are only allowed to be below 50K, while my family members must be given 50K even if they are hopelessly stupid.

Chi Wei’s royal relatives and aristocrats also organize group-buying orders during working hours, openly browse online shopping sites without any scruples, and have no qualms about organizing group purchases to profit from other employees. Employees who aren’t invited even get mocked~ (The company is all yours, and you still profit by selling the gifts meant for us—is money really that tight?!)

When “Give me a non-voluntary resignation letter” becomes a public joke,

what hope does this company have left?

And if you happen to encounter another bizarre manager who cries in front of their subordinates, saying, “I didn’t want to be the bad guy either @#$%^^....”

what hope does this company have left?

You could say yes, yes, yes

You could say right, right, right

Keep your eyes and mouth tightly shut

Let everything go in one ear and out the other

Just grit your teeth and get through it

(Hey~ why does this sound a little suggestive?)

The fact that this incompetent Chi Wei family business is beyond saving is nothing new—it’s not as though it has only been this way for a year or two.

The boss can make so much money because, apart from underreporting employees’ wages when paying them,

they bet that they won’t get caught,

bet that the fine will be less than the insurance premiums they should have paid,

bet that employees won’t dare report them,

bet that employees need their salaries to support their families,

bet that employees don’t understand computers,

bet that employees have no understanding of their rights at all,

bet that employees will be too embarrassed to ask.

Otherwise, there’s also the fact that they buy other people’s expired, shoddy fabric to make clothes.

Everyone in the industry knows this.

They nearly started offering courses on it.

Fabric also has a golden usage period.

Chi Wei’s boss specializes in buying huge quantities of cheap fabric that was produced a very, very long time ago.

So if wearing it causes the color to fade,

if it becomes thinner with wear,

if it gets damaged,

if it makes your body itch,

if it disintegrates after washing,

if it disappears after washing,

if it deforms after washing,

that’s why.

Otherwise, how do you think Chi Wei’s former chairperson, Mr. Ho, and his wife made their money?

Without making money this way, how could they have become major real-estate investors?

If you’re applying for a job at headquarters, ask for as high a salary as possible.

There won’t be any opportunities for salary increases in the future,

because the department heads have a high turnover rate.

You may be hired at an extremely high salary if you perform in the interview as though you’re highly sought after.

I’ll list a few points too.

1. The boss refuses to admit that they don’t know how to run the company. Everything is constantly changing; the only thing that never changes is that the executive vice president of operations is terrible, yet the boss is still too timid and easily swayed to remove her. Could this possibly prove that…

2. If you’re six minutes late, you have to take one hour of leave. The company has never publicly announced this rule; in any case, as soon as HR calls, you’re told to request leave.

3. After working hard all year, the boss doesn’t give out year-end bonuses or even say a word. A bag of rice as a year-end bonus? Rice that sells for NT$200 on the market? At companies with good benefits, are they worried that you’ll go hungry?!

4. Every department is constantly recruiting. It’s not that they can’t find people; it’s that people resign after working for only a short time. The boss habitually publicly humiliates former employees, always assuming that others can’t keep up with the boss’s pace. Boss, didn’t every employee come to work only after being interviewed? Shouldn’t you fire the HR manager who conducted the interviews?! You’ve brought in plenty of senior executives too.

5. People whom the boss claims are excellent are constantly parachuted in to serve as high-level department heads, such as general managers, special assistants, consultants, and directors. However, as soon as their opinions differ from those of the executive vice president of operations, these “elite reinforcements” are immediately sidelined.

6. The company has no business targets. The boss only says that this year’s revenue should reach over NT$1 billion. But does the boss even care whether the design department has the capability? I know the sales department definitely isn’t capable; everyone is just waiting for retirement, so don’t make things difficult for them either.

7. Many employees’ labor and health insurance salaries are underreported. I didn’t notice at first, but a colleague suggested checking the salary records with the Bureau of Labor Insurance, and we found that they had been substantially underreported for several years. Is there something wrong with the boss? Are you taking the 6% labor pension contributions we earned and using them to buy land?!

8. The boss thinks the company has a very high level of name recognition. What a load of crap! It’s probably better known among competitors for being ridiculed and violating regulations. Buying clothes from mainland China, removing the labels, and replacing them with K-wei labels; not paying employees overtime; making them work more than ten consecutive days without days off—the boss’s negative news coverage is your publicity strategy, right?! You should have said so earlier; we could have helped provide the information to the Bureau of Labor Insurance. There’s a lot of it.

I’ll think of more later—more things that reflect the reality, so everyone can get to know K-wei.

If nothing goes wrong... you can be a wage thief.

No year-end bonus this year.

The boss doesn’t explain a single thing clearly to the employees.

It turns out that

if he paid the year-end bonus, he’d have ten or twenty million less to buy land and houses with.

Now I understand what those bosses’ secretaries bring into the company from the bank every day.

Before the New Year, they only gave us a small bag of rice.

Is this supposed to make us figure things out for ourselves—

the “go home and eat your own food” vibe?

Here comes another general manager who sounds very impressive.

He works part-time two days a week.

Part-time?!

That’s right.

A general manager who works part-time two days a week.

The supervisor even instructed us on what to say if the general manager asks about work-related matters.

Boss, you’re overthinking it.

We know this trick too,

and we’re probably very experienced at it.

Otherwise, how did the previous general managers all say bye-bye?

Even when the boss’s son came to be general manager,

we helped the boss successfully say bye-bye to his son too.

I haven’t forgotten. I haven’t forgotten.

The only advantage is that most of my fellow employees are excellent.

There are too many, so I’ll list them:

1. The company violates the law by underreporting employees’ salaries. For salaries of NT$40,000–50,000, it generally reports around NT$22,000. Whether it’s the 6% for labor and health insurance or your employment insurance, everything is underreported. The company is gambling on probability: as long as even one fewer employee files a labor dispute claim, it profits.

2. A textbook example of an exploitative old-style boss who treats employees like household servants. The first-generation chairman particularly loves calling people in for meetings or market research on holidays.

3. The finances are extremely opaque. Every year they tout a profit-center system, yet even when the company makes money, they are unwilling to share the profits with employees. The bonuses are pitifully small. I have to say, the boss is really good at making empty promises.

4. A textbook family business, packed with relatives of the ruling family. On your first day at work, be sure to study the list of names and extensions carefully. When you see people with either of two particular surnames, it is best to stand at attention and salute.

5. Asking for a raise seems to be asking for the boss’s life. There are many employees who have worked there for more than five years without ever receiving a raise. Once raises are mentioned, there is simply nothing to discuss.

6. As for the employee dormitories in either Taipei or Guangzhou, all I can say is that, even by my lowered standards, they are no different from refugee housing.

7. Policies change from morning to night. Today they may say something must be completed tonight no matter how late you have to work, but tomorrow they may completely reverse course, often driving a whole bunch of people to the brink.

8. Every company has its share of backstabbers, but here the old-timers rule. They are all seniors over seventy, and I often see them suddenly fall asleep while sitting in their chairs at work—it really makes me sweat for them.

9. The boss loves parachuting in a senior executive just because someone introduced them, but often the parachuted executive disappears before completing even one week...

10. Very few middle managers and above in the company are under forty. If you are approaching retirement age, Qiwei will be a good choice for you. If you are not yet thirty, you will find it very boring here, because apart from the receptionist, you probably will not find any colleagues around your age.

11. The two elders of the first generation and the second generation are as incompatible as fire and water. The office often has sparks flying—remember to keep your popcorn ready for the movie.

12. People often say that the wealthy cannot control their lower bodies, and our family is no exception. The boss and employees... you know what I mean.

The list of grievances is endless; there are too many to enumerate. If I seriously continued writing, even 5,000 words probably would not be enough. I advise anyone with ambitions not to throw away their precious youth and bright future.
