Very many. Listed below for everyone’s reference.
1. You cannot eat breakfast at work. If it is after the start of working hours, 8:00, you have to go to the meeting room to eat, which is very inconvenient. It is equivalent to letting the entire office know that you are eating breakfast. If you eat at your desk after 8:00, you will be repeatedly scolded by the Administration Department.
2. There is a scheduled floor-sweeping duty. Everyone except supervisors has to take turns. If you have not started early in the morning, you will also be scolded by the Administration Department.
3. The air conditioning is extremely hot, and the temperature is restricted to 27°C. With more than 10 people in the office, it is simply impossible to work at this temperature.
4. They are extremely particular about employees’ arrival and departure times. If you arrive too punctually, you get scolded; if you leave too punctually, you are also criticized for supposedly having too little work: “Why can you leave on time?”
The main issue is that overtime is exchanged for compensatory leave, and they do not really like letting employees apply for it. After applying, you will be questioned about the details of your work and why overtime was necessary.
5. You have to swipe your card every time you enter or leave, so they can monitor how long employees are away.
6. Surveillance cameras were only installed this year, for the purpose of monitoring employees.
7. The Business Department has a very low status. The Administration Department scolds it at the slightest opportunity and especially likes targeting it; even trivial matters can be made to sound extremely serious.
The vice president is also powerless and has no intention of standing up for their subordinates.
8. There is a coffee machine, but you have to bring your own coffee beans to use it. If you want to use the company’s coffee, you have to pay. The company even quibbles with employees over a small amount of money.
9. The company’s systems are problematic, and it cannot retain employees. From last year to this year, all the senior employees in the Business Department have left, excluding field staff.
The most senior internal employee at present has probably been here for six months…
10. With all the senior employees gone, the handover gaps are severe. There are many questions no one can answer, and work is inefficient.
11. The company does not value its employees and thinks it can simply find replacements after people leave. Turnover is very high, causing current employees to take over the duties of departing employees. A lot of time is often spent on handovers, and the more you take over, the more work you get. If you say you have too much work and refuse to take it over, you may even be put on a blacklist and labeled an employee who does not obey. They keep saying they will hire people, but nothing ever comes of it. As a result, taking over a former employee’s work usually lasts a very long time.
12. The company likes employees who talk but do not do anything, while employees who work seriously are criticized.
