A stable retirement job, with a bunch of salary thieves who have connections to rely on

Engineer Liu from the NPI Technical Engineering Department—every time everyone is swamped with work, he is the only one sitting at his desk as if no one can touch him! He openly sleeps at his desk! I really don’t know whether his supervisor is blind or simply turning a blind eye! They let this parasite collect a white-collar salary. Whenever I go to the fifth floor on business, I see him either sleeping or watching videos! Employees like this are truly unacceptable! It is as if, relying on his connections, he can do whatever he wants! He does nothing and acts as a full-time salary thief. I really don’t know what the purpose of the company’s senior management and HR managers is?! Do they not realize that this will affect the entire work environment? Absolutely terrible........ They say they want to transform and change the company, but they will never be able to retain new employees if they do not deal with these long-serving employees! Wishful thinking.......

I don't know; it seems very stable and easygoing.

The interview process is formulaic, and the test is impractical.

HR said the hiring process was underway but couldn't provide a salary figure.

The whole thing was laughable.

Other than having fixed working hours, there are no other advantages.

The manager surnamed Lin in the Transmission R&D department spends all day criticizing others and verbally bullying colleagues. I cannot see what good qualities or exemplary behavior he himself has! He could be said to have a notorious reputation, but I do not know why the company does not take action. Clearly, they themselves do not have time to teach others, yet they say that others are unwilling to learn! The senior engineer in the same group is no different—they are equally matched, as the saying goes: people bring up people like themselves! This company is not very friendly when it comes to salary adjustments for new employees. There are many “senior employees” (senior engineers) who have nothing to do all day, yet they keep saying how busy they are; in reality, they assign all the projects to newcomers. The salaries are also ridiculously low! There are many people who rely on connections and do not work!! Really, far too many! For some unknown reason, upper management would rather pay these people who do not work high salaries than raise the salary levels of new employees! Those who work seriously and have so many projects that they can barely cope, end up taking home less than 33,000 after deductions, while the salaries of those old employees who do not work are higher than one another! It feels like this is a company that needs to be thoroughly reorganized.

Other than punctual working hours, there are no other advantages.

There is no pressure to arrive at and leave work on time

Newcomers interviewing for engineering positions on the fourth floor in Zhonghe, be careful.

There is a senior employee surnamed Lin who often verbally bullies colleagues, and even the company can do nothing about it.

Verbal abuse and profanity aren't enough for him; he also bangs on the desk and subjects people to psychological bombardment.

Those who want to work at this company, be careful.

The exam is easy

You have to clock in for work at 08:20, with no flexibility in the schedule; after work, the hours are based on a responsibility system.

The guaranteed year-end bonus is two months' salary, but meal allowances are deducted first, so it is not based on full salary. A mid-year bonus is not guaranteed.

None

The HR department at this company basically invites people to interviews at random just to fill the quota and count it toward the HR staff member’s personal performance. Although the interview invitation was proactively sent and followed up with a phone call by HR, I looked over the job description for “220 – Overseas Sales Specialist / Project Management Specialist.” Even though the location was in a very remote part of Hsinchu, I thought I could give it a try.

However, this interview was a complete waste of time. Not only did I have to send my résumé to HR beforehand, but after arriving I also had to fill out a pile of personal information, attach a photo, take an English test, and answer written questions. It took at least one to one and a half hours to complete all of this. After interviewing with the hiring manager, I personally felt that I was clearly not the person they were looking for. They also said that the company was just a typical contract manufacturer and did not pursue its own brand.

After the interview with the manager ended, I already knew that I probably would not be hired. It felt like a scam: I had prepared all my personal information and completed a pile of test questions and forms. Personally, I felt that HR probably already knew the manager would not hire me, but still went through the interview process just for show. HR then started explaining the company’s benefits, working hours, and so on. By that point, I had no interest in listening and just wanted to leave as soon as possible. I genuinely feel that this company’s approach to recruiting and interviewing is terrible. I spent time preparing for the interview and paid for round-trip high-speed rail and taxi fares, only to be treated and disregarded like this. They have no respect for serious job seekers. Unsurprisingly, I received no response afterward. Terrible HR.

The Hsinchu location is quite remote; if you died there, probably no one would know.

A deceptive HR representative and a deceptive supervisor (R&D Associate Vice President) work together to put on a double act,

then, after their deceptive tactics are exposed,

they start showing their true colors.

Chiayi plant: If you are a professional in a certain field, the starting salary is below average. If you are applying for an entry-level position, there is no future here; the salary is fixed and will not increase.

There is a fixed bonus, but the year-end bonus is not much.

For entry-level employees, the salary is low. Meal allowances are included in the base salary. Short-term dispatched workers are often dismissed at any time, and people are often hired through connections. As for professional technical staff, the salaries are probably in the lower-middle range compared with other industries. Some employees also change jobs after joining the company to positions with higher salaries.

The advantage is that there are no advantages.

The Chiayi Taibao plant has no systems in place. It is a traditional industry, with a half-trained processing worker managing professional designers. Drawing annotations do not follow CNS regulations; they are marked up haphazardly, and yet this person comes to correct the drawing reviews.

I really can’t think of any pros for the Zhonghe location—salary? Work environment? Sense of accomplishment?

Maybe doing good deeds?

Using the wrong people is devastating.

Using the right people and heading in the right direction, but ultimately having to bear responsibility for others’ mistakes, then resigning. It’s just as hopeless.

I don’t think there are good prospects for development in Taipei.

1. The Hsinchu R&D supervisors are Mr. Wang Zili and Assistant Manager Chuang. You can learn the essence of this field from them. Both are very patient when it comes to developing engineers and are very willing to share their own experience. If you have any questions—even if you are an absent-minded R&D engineer like me—just be honest and bring them up, and they will do their best to help. In addition, Mr. Wang has a very good temper and is dependable. His expression may seem a little cold, but he has a passionate heart. Assistant Manager Chuang looks somewhat serious, but is actually very humorous. I am very grateful to both of them for nurturing me during my five years as a national-defense-service engineer at Moxa.

2. Mr. Jiang from Sales, although a little impatient by nature, is basically a good person. When meeting with him, try to think from a sales perspective; it will give you different ideas about an engineering career.

3. At the time, Moxa’s bonuses were essentially shared equally among everyone: everyone worked hard together, and the bonuses were quite transparent. The general manager was very willing to share the fruits of everyone’s hard work.

4. What was fairly special about Moxa Hsinchu was that you had many opportunities to meet with first-level supervisors, and effective suggestions were usually taken into consideration.

5. The working atmosphere among R&D, Sales, Procurement, QA, and Manufacturing was fairly good...

6. As long as equipment was genuinely needed in the laboratory, the company would purchase it. Compared with the companies I worked for later, this was truly a major advantage.

1. It was difficult to get leave approved, and this was also one of the reasons many R&D employees resigned. (Taking leave might be related to performance evaluations.)

2. It was really difficult to get leave approved... R&D employees who wanted to travel abroad resigned and many went to Qisda or MStar, where they started working themselves to the bone.

3. It was really difficult to get leave approved... If you couldn’t find a girlfriend there, you simply didn’t take leave XD

4. The air in the Hukou Industrial Park was somewhat poor.

5. The transportation allowance for off-site testing was a little low at the time... As I recall, the fuel reimbursement was NT$3.5/km.

6. The PMs brought in later... I absolutely do not recommend the PM department. I’m not kidding!!
