It has been a few years since I worked as a front-end engineer, so please use these pros and cons for reference only.

1. Even with no experience, the salary is over 40K, but note that the salary structure is high gross pay with low reported income (a low base salary plus various odd bonuses, such as leadership bonuses and R&D bonuses).

2. Not much overtime.

3. Plenty of snacks and drinks.

4. The head of the technology department (front end + back end) encourages continuing education and sets aside a short period of time each week for employees to watch instructional videos.

5. Books are available to borrow.

6. The office is spacious and bright, with good facilities.

7. Parking spaces are available (at the underground parking lot of Farglory Financial Center).

8. Scrum and version control have been introduced, so there is a reasonable level of structure.

9. The technology is not too far behind the industry.

10. Layoffs are uncommon. Employees whose performance is unsatisfactory may have the opportunity to transfer to sales or customer service.

The team leader likes to form cliques (even though there are only a little over ten people on the front-end team). If she dislikes you, you will be very obviously isolated.

She creates separate groups and only adds the team members she likes. For example, she never invites you to after-work gatherings or colleagues' birthday celebrations, keeps you out of the loop about many things, and even bad-mouths you in groups from which you have been excluded.

After the other team members sense her hostility toward you, no one responds to what you say in the group.

Suggestion: If you want to join the front-end department, watch out for the team leader and her followers (you'll know what I mean once you join). The former is skilled at silent treatment, while the latter publicly bullies and humiliates people in group chats.

If you accidentally offend her, you might as well resign or ask HR (the people there are quite nice) to help you transfer to another department.

The hiring manager’s attitude during the interview was poor. They scheduled a time and then arrived late, which felt quite disrespectful. If you don’t want to hire anyone, then please don’t ask people to come for interviews, okay? = =

None

Applied for a technical customer service/assistant engineer position.

The job posting stated that it was a day shift,

but in fact, it involved working three rotating shifts.

The salary range listed in the posting was also the salary for three-shift work.

The job duties were also more focused on customer service

and had little to do with being an assistant engineer.

I felt that there was a discrepancy between the job description and the actual position.

During the interview, the supervisor’s

questions were almost entirely focused on investigating my personal background,

asking who was in my family, what my boyfriend did for work, and even which company my boyfriend worked for, among other questions of this kind.

None

Gaming industry; the worst interview experience ever. I don’t know what they were acting cocky about—they used a humiliating, face-slapping approach during the interview to cut the salary.

Couldn't feel anything

The worst interview experience of my entire life

None

It has been nearly a year since leaving the company

Formerly worked as a front-end engineer

The technology was clearly not very difficult, yet many areas remained unimproved for a long time

The team leader had an especially awful personality (double standards + inability to accept criticism)

Most colleagues remained silent in the face of unreasonable situations

The manager also turned a blind eye to all of this and took no action

Don't stay for more than a year, or you'll become a disposable, mass-produced copy
