1. The company is in an old building, and there are cockroaches and rats.
2. The office is on the third floor; I don't know whether it is an illegally added structure. The stairs are very steep, and a colleague fell down the stairs.
3. The boss uses surveillance cameras to monitor employees' screens.
1. Birthday dinners every month
2. Three late-arrival grace periods each month
3. Overtime pay (must be applied for in advance; it only starts counting after 6:45, calculated in one-hour increments)
1. Tardiness is not deducted by the minute; they will ask you to take one hour of leave
2. There is absolutely no honeymoon period when you start. They teach you many things at once, expect you to learn them in one go, and teach very quickly
3. It is a family-owned business, with limited opportunities for advancement and high turnover
If you are inexplicably singled out by colleagues who are more senior than you, you will suffer here. If you want to be rigorously challenged or scolded, this is a place to toughen yourself up mentally and physically
The e-commerce industry is very busy, so you generally cannot use much of your annual leave, and the company will not compensate you for it
Your supervisor always seems distracted during meetings, and keeps changing things after the meeting discussions have concluded

1. The company is very far from the MRT.
2. There is a shop downstairs and an office upstairs. The space is extremely small, and the staircase is small too; even just walking around feels cramped.
3. The interviewer said she was a supervisor (though I’m not sure whether she was a supervisor or the owner). She kept pressing for KPIs and data. I had already explained the differences in results before and after the campaign, and had also mentioned that past data had been handled by an external vendor, but she kept repeating: “Then how would I know?” ......
4. I had read reviews before the interview and thought the situation probably wouldn’t be as described above~ But halfway through the interview, I just wanted to go home. Overall, it wasn’t a very good experience.
The interviewers were quite kind and friendly, and the conversation went smoothly.
The stairs are genuinely quite steep, but as long as you walk carefully, it’s not a problem!
For design positions, it is recommended to inform candidates in advance that a computer-based test will be required during the interview.
There is also a second interview after the first, but I did not participate in the second interview, so I have no experience to share.
The company’s job openings have been posted on job boards for a long time. I’m not sure whether they simply haven’t been able to find suitable candidates or what.
1. There is overtime pay (it only starts being calculated at 6:45 p.m., after the 6 p.m. end of the workday, and is then calculated by the hour)
2. There are bonuses (the people above decide how to distribute them however they want)
3. Relationships among colleagues are quite harmonious. We help one another communicate and coordinate (after all, we are all people in the same unfortunate situation).
1. Employees are required to plan in advance, but management itself has very little concept of marketing planning and just does whatever it wants in a chaotic manner. The last-minute changes are very serious.
This makes it very difficult for the people below to work. Then why did we propose it in the first place, only to do unpaid work?
2. The bonus system is very opaque, and no one knows how it is calculated. What counts as good or bad individual performance?
They only say that it is a quarterly bonus system, but they never specify fixed payment months, and sometimes they even forget.
If you don't wait until the month when the bonus is paid, you simply won't get one~
The official website meets its targets every month!!!
In principle, everyone should be eligible for a bonus, but whether you get one also depends on whether the people above like you or not. Only then will you get your share ^.^
3. The company really likes to do things sneakily~
As employees, when we resign, we leave our employers time to find replacements and arrange handovers;
But once they learn that you are going to resign! On the agreed quarterly bonus payment date, they deliberately call everyone to another place and secretly distribute the bonuses, while excluding employees who are going to resign from receiving them. This is completely unequal and discriminatory treatment. Such behavior is extremely disrespectful. Didn't we contribute too?
4. The benefits system looks like it gives you everything, but in practice there are many underhanded tricks!
Think carefully before joining, and make sure to ask about everything clearly; otherwise, you are the one who will suffer the loss~
You put your heart and soul into the work, only to receive this kind of treatment in the end.
5. Before the interview, I had read other people's reviews on Tianyancha.
I didn't believe the company could really be that bad, and thought I should be able to overcome the difficulties and do the job.
After joining, there were all kinds of things I never expected~~~ It really is true that failing to heed seniors' advice leads to trouble right before your eyes.
It was all my fault! I shouldn't have believed that there was a company willing to treat its employees sincerely.

The boss talks without logic
Thinks they know a lot about e-commerce, but their head is actually full of unrealistic ideas
Very calculating about everything; very polite to outsiders, but very impolite to their own people.
1. Very fond of living in their own world. Cleaning is more important than work; cleaning the office is one thing, but they also expect you to take recyclables home for them.
2. Very fond of living as if in ancient times. There is no water dispenser, so if you want hot water, you have to turn on the gas and boil it yourself.
3. The supervisor is emotional. When your ideas do not align, communication is completely impossible, and you are instead subjected to sarcastic remarks.
None
The entire company has only one supervisor: the owner himself.
1. Extremely poor communication skills; he has never shown respect for anyone he has hired. He lacks professional ability, yet speaks and behaves arrogantly.
2. He can repeatedly make decisions and draw conclusions about anything based on his mood. He constantly asks employees to clearly explain their thoughts and suggestions, but ultimately does everything with himself at the center.
3. The number of cutting remarks and sarcastic jabs is definitely greater than the number of meals you eat each day.
4. Nothing—whether an issue or an idea—has a complete plan or SOP process. He only assumes that you lack ability and do not understand e-commerce standards.
5. The owner is someone who has never experienced the workplace, so don't expect any hope or professional processes. All you will get here is relentless exploitation.
If you like absurd processes, an environment full of sarcasm, and dealing with an arrogant boss, this place will definitely suit you.
The person who interviewed me was fairly well-groomed.
1. He didn’t introduce himself, but he didn’t seem to be from HR; he seemed more like the boss. He shouldn’t be conducting interviews, and his attitude was very arrogant.
2. The company environment is not great. It is essentially a storefront with calligraphy brushes and art supplies for sale in the front, and an office in the back. It is somewhat cramped, and the lighting is dim. If you’re looking forward to a beautiful office or a sizable company, you can skip this one.
3. He asked why I had left my previous job. I said that the boss at my former company frequently changed decisions on a whim. He asked me in return, “Isn’t it bad to frequently change decisions?” It’s clear from this that he himself is that kind of person.
4. The reason I say he was arrogant during the interview is that he asked me about the job responsibilities, and I answered based on my understanding of them. However, he gave an unserious laugh, clearly dissatisfied, and even mocked me by asking whether I hadn’t read the job posting. I had read it; it was just that, for some reason, it was later taken down and I could no longer view it. Normally, HR would clarify the job responsibilities by adding information, rather than using a sarcastic tone like he did.
In the end, I politely told him that I wasn’t suitable for the position and thanked him. But deep down, I was extremely frustrated—it was such a waste of my time. For a company with such a ridiculous setup and scale to conduct interviews with such an arrogant attitude, anyone who joins will probably have a very strong submissive streak.
