This page collects workplace experiences, questions and discussions submitted by users. Dates shown are submission dates, not periods of employment. Individual reports do not describe the entire company.
Read the community guidelines1. The office is in a luxury residential building, so you can see many foreigners and dogs.
2. If you are a devout Buddhist, you can see that the company has a large Buddha statue.
3. If you want to have multiple high-level job titles in your lifetime, you can come here (Director, Manager, or Supervisor—take your pick).
4. If you enjoy drinking, you can taste alcohol here on weekdays, because the boss occasionally drinks during work hours.
5. You can learn a lot about laws and legal provisions.
6. Entry-level employees are all easy to get along with.
1. I completely agree with everything everyone above said—plus one.
2. As long as you are an employee, you must bring in business. The boss may suddenly demand that you generate NT$200,000 in sales in one week.
3. Even if there is a written record of anything, the boss can twist the facts and make the crooked sound straight.
4. Because there is no accountant, you, as an employee, also have to find ways to help apply for all kinds of loans. The boss will cry and complain that loan sharks will come to collect debts or that salaries cannot be paid, but despite claiming to have no money, the boss can still hire lawyers, live in a luxury residence, drive nice cars, and dress impeccably.
5. Because no one trains or hands things over to you, you have to teach yourself everything. But you must use one minute as if it were an hour.
6. They tell customers everywhere how good the products are, but in reality, everything has expired. They have not restocked for a long time, but tell customers it is a presale system and collect the money first. When customers cancel their contracts, they also try every possible way to delay it as long as they can.
7. The turnover rate is frighteningly high, so there has recently even been joint recruitment. All those benefits are lies.
8. There will be lots of messes for you to clean up!
9. The boss and the boss’s relatives love showing off their English, but the kind of English they speak makes people very uncomfortable.
10. You can name your salary, but they will also fire you very quickly.
Conclusion: If you want a stable job or have even a little personal integrity and do not want to lie every day, please think twice even if you are offered the job.
The only advantage is that getting hired is quite easy.
Honestly, I realized this website far too late; everything the senior colleagues mentioned above said is true.
From the very first day at work, I felt that something was strange about the company. A company that has been established for so many years does not have a single long-term employee. After working there for a while, some questions will become clear. I urge all job seekers not to waste any more time joining this fraudulent company and wasting their lives and self-respect.
No advantages
I agree with all the shortcomings mentioned above. Just passing by as a victim from Taichung.
In addition, this article has identified quite a few victims... so I won't say much more...

A scary company
Free water/free toilets
The boss is extremely emotional. As long as she doesn’t like you, she concludes that you lack ability and are not suitable for the company. She won’t tell you directly—instead, she simply ignores you and gives you the silent treatment, then lays you off after using you. She is extremely calculating!
After joining, there was absolutely no handover. You had to figure everything out on your own, and the computer equipment was actually ten years old! The software they used was even worse, to put it mildly.
Also, there were two meetings every week, and they were the kind of completely meaningless meetings. What surprised me more was that when the company’s business development staff approached clients, they had to send candle samples—and the staff even had to pay out of pocket to buy the samples for the clients!? The whole thing was completely baffling... They even try to make money off their employees...
The boss is extremely immature and easily uses emotionally charged language toward vendors or clients during meetings. They’re not children... It’s hard to imagine a boss saying such things, and she has absolutely no trust in her employees.
Finally, if you really intend to join this company, please think twice. Don’t waste your time.
The colleagues are very nice and always help one another.
1. The turnover rate is extremely high! I was inexplicably laid off (on the day I was laid off, half the people at the company were also inexplicably laid off).
2. You can name your salary, but they will also fire you very quickly.
3. They have very little trust in employees. Whenever they are displeased, their attitude is extremely poor; if they want you to resign voluntarily, they will give you the silent treatment.
4. They ask about performance every day and expect everyone to find ways to improve it. We have to come up with activities every day, yet they provide no resources whatsoever. Sales staff even have to pay out of pocket to buy products from the company to give to clients when visiting them.
5. I heard that they declared bankruptcy in Taipei, could not pay salaries, and completely closed the Taipei office. They are now starting over in a home office in Nantun, Taichung, and are planning to move to Wuri again!!!!!
6. Before laying people off, they do not discuss the work with the people concerned; they simply announce that they will be laid off, then use the layoff process to force them to take over other people's work.
7. Employees are not allowed to discuss things, yet we are expected to organize activities.
8. During the interview, they said that the boss was very open-minded and would not interfere with employees' work, only looking at the results. That is absolutely not true!! After joining, they meddle in everything, big or small, and control every matter; everything has to be reported.
9. When leaving, I requested a certificate of employment, but they did not want to issue one. They even said that we had not paid them anything when we came here. After I told them that I wanted this company's certificate of employment and that it had nothing to do with my previous company, they reluctantly issued one to us.
10. They are moving to Wuri. Everyone, please be extremely careful and do not waste your time. They only want to spend very little money to hire someone who can do ten people's jobs!
Located near Xiangshan Station, with convenient transportation and a quiet environment.
1. The turnover rate is extremely high! Less than a week after starting, the boss will force you out. Take a sick day and you’ll receive a text message telling you not to come back. The boss interviews people every day, driving one person out and replacing them with someone new the following week.
2. The boss does not trust employees; the office is full of surveillance cameras.
3. One minute before the end of the workday, the boss will suddenly ask to discuss something with you, hoping that you’ll work overtime.
4. All the products are expired; nothing has been restocked for several years. Yet employees are expected to convince customers how great the products are.
5. No customers buy anything every day, yet each employee is expected to generate NT$200,000 in sales per week on their own.
6. Extremely superstitious and a believer in feng shui, the boss conducts worship rituals in the office every day and periodically rearranges the seating.
7. Extremely poor credit; the boss goes to the bank to borrow money every day. With such poor credit, the boss can only turn to loan sharks, and people dressed in black come to collect debts at the workplace.
8. Last year, the boss claimed bankruptcy, could not pay salaries or the office rent, and even had to give the landlord candles in lieu of payment. The Taipei office was completely shut down.
Many employees helplessly went unpaid and had no way to go to court every day, allowing this unscrupulous boss to continue avoiding justice.
Conclusion: I heard that in 2021 the boss started up again in Taichung. I just hope no one else gets deceived!
It sounds fashionable to say what industry the company is in.
I agree with everything everyone mentioned previously.
In addition:
1. There is no year-end bonus, no bonuses for the three major holidays, and no red-envelope bonus when returning to work after the Lunar New Year holiday.
2. The boss often goes around saying things like the company is about to go under or that she herself is deeply in debt⋯⋯⋯, among other things.
3. The boss has a very limited understanding of the Labor Standards Act. For example, even when medical leave is supported by documentation, the employee's full pay is still deducted.
4. The job advertisement is written very attractively, and says that all benefits become available after one year of employment. However, apart from the boss's own relatives and the boss herself, no one has worked there for a year.
The turnover rate is extremely high. On the one hand, there is a manager who does nothing but collect a salary and is incapable of handling either e-commerce or physical retail operations. Capable employees are driven to resign or are fired by him. On the other hand, the owner does not manage the business at all and does not care even when there is no merchandise to sell; all they want is to clear inventory (by bringing in some strange products—no wonder they cannot get rid of them). More than 10 people resigned within a year, all told. That cannot be normal, right??
