The head of the business unit is very old-school. At the beginning, he asked me to introduce myself in Chinese first. I gave a brief introduction since everything was already on my CV, and then he asked me to say a bit in English as well. I stumbled a little, so he asked, “Are you sure you want to work in sales?” How laughable—I’ve worked in international sales for almost 10 years. Although this is also a B2B role, he wanted you to act more like B2C sales: very confident and slick-talking. After going around in circles for quite a while, I finally realized that he also expected you to develop domestic business. Ridiculous—they cut the salary by that much and still demand so much. Looking at what others have shared, it seems to be full of people just coasting until retirement. I’d recommend that only people who live nearby consider it; if you live that far away, you wouldn’t go even if you got the offer~

The inquiries are extremely unreasonable, asking a whole lot of questions. If you want everyone to know, you can give it a try. It feels like there is serious internal conflict and the atmosphere is poor.
It feels like there are hardly any advantages.
The HR department showed very little respect for the interviewee.
The interview was originally scheduled for 1:00 p.m., but the HR assistant did not come out until 1:10 p.m. I was taken to an exhibition room,
where they first collected my personal information and photo, then said I had to take a personality test.
The personality test only had 10 questions and could be completed in less than five minutes.
After 30 minutes had passed, at 1:45 p.m., they came in to ask whether I had finished answering the questions.
After that, they said I also had to take an EXCEL functions test (at that point, I was already quite unhappy).
Why not provide both tests at once?
It only had two questions, but by then I was no longer willing to fill it out.
Another 15 minutes passed before the HR assistant came in again to ask whether I had finished.
The test itself took less than 20 minutes to complete.
The HR assistant kept coming in and going out, while I waited for the HR manager to conduct the interview. It was already 2:30 p.m.
As soon as the HR manager came in, they said, “You’re very unfamiliar with EXCEL functions.”
After asking some irrelevant questions, it was already 3:00 p.m.
Then the HR assistant came in again and said that the finance and accounting manager was in a meeting, and gave me a quarterly publication to pass the time.
Five minutes later, I left with my head held high,
because, in my view, the company showed absolutely no respect for interviewees.
You can survive well by flattering your supervisor; you don't need any real ability.
Veteran employees will bully and ostracize you in the workplace.
A veteran of 10 years at the Houke plant passing by~ (The organizational systems and atmosphere at the Houke and Tanzi plants are very different.)
*The company complies with the Labor Standards Act~ employees’ rights are protected.
*An overseas travel subsidy of NT$15,000 once every two years & domestic travel once a year (you can choose the itinerary for both).
*The leave system is pretty good (they aren’t overly difficult about annual leave or sick leave—feel free to apply and use it all~ this really changed my perception).
*As long as you have the right mindset, you don’t have to worry about offending people when speaking up (being yourself and having your own personality are important).
*Veteran employees won’t teach you unless they have to~ you have to figure things out and learn on your own (mindset is important).
*Supervisors have unusually convoluted thought processes~ you need to have your own ideas, or they’ll take advantage of you (they really push it).

For Ms. Liao in HR
Take a good look at other people's résumés.
You didn't even look carefully before saying they had never worked in a cleanroom. What a joke.
And don't just call and fire off a bunch of rude questions.
Then you don't even intend to schedule an interview.
Doing data collection for your own year-end HR performance metrics.
Anyone can see that you only called to collect information. Fuck your mother.
The HR interview experience was fairly pleasant.
During the interview with the department supervisor, the interview questions were not very respectful toward the interviewee.
Very suitable for coasting toward retirement
The infighting among upper management is too severe; incompetent old-timers throw their weight around and love to bully newcomers
A comfortable place to coast until retirement, but there’s no hope for promotion and the internal infighting is severe.
