司創公關顧問有限公司

1. New hires are usually given the compensation they requested during the interview (at least that was the case for me and another colleague who joined at the same time). I received raises fairly quickly—twice before I had even been there a year. However, the colleague next to me still had not received a raise after a year.... I’m not sure whether this should count as a strength or a weakness.

2. The clients are all large companies in the skincare and cosmetics industries, which can help enhance your résumé when looking for a future job.

3. You can quickly learn the fundamentals. Tasks are handed directly to you, and if you don’t know how to do something, you have to... find a way yourself or ask. It’s suitable for people who like finding their own solutions and know how to ask questions. Occasionally, there are company-wide meetings for sharing experiences, which provide a little sense of knowledge being passed down.

4. Relations among colleagues are fairly harmonious. When it’s a colleague’s birthday, the company orders expensive food for everyone to share.

5. It seems that no one is looking for new business (I don’t know for sure), but projects keep coming in, so there isn’t much pressure in that regard.

1. I was only relaxed for the first week after joining; after that, things were always very busy @@. When there are a lot of projects, working overtime is the norm. If it’s a few days before an event, we work especially late and almost always stay until nearly midnight. Sometimes it’s already four or five in the afternoon, and a client will still call asking for something-or-other to be done by the next morning. However, we almost never have to work or work overtime on Saturdays and Sundays. We also don’t work when the government designates a Saturday as a make-up workday, so that’s a small silver lining.

2. The company is made up entirely of women.

3. Which supervisor you get is a matter of luck. The colleague next door’s next-door colleague was not very lucky: her supervisor lacked organization, causing her to frequently do work for nothing, and she left after six months.

4. The projects are fairly homogeneous; 90% are in the cosmetics and skincare industries. If you’re interested in these fields, that’s great, but if you want to gain experience in other areas...

5. The bosses all leave work very late... the supervisors also leave very late... and little old me.........

P.S. Although I selected “Good” from the three options—Good, Average, and Poor—in reality... choosing Average would also be reasonable, and choosing Good would also be reasonable. Sometimes it feels average, and sometimes it feels good.

People who like beauty products and enjoy organizing press conference events can become very engaged.

The overtime hours are long, and you have to find ways to handle everything yourself. The company has serious financial problems.

1. The clients are actually all the boss’s former colleagues, but I am genuinely very worried about how long the company can survive if those personal relationships disappear.

2. Working hours are not fixed, and overtime is frequent: There are basically no fixed working hours. However, new employees are required to start work at 9:30, while almost all managers only come in during the afternoon. Basically, they work until one or two in the morning, and new employees have to stay and work until 11 or 12 as well... If you want to join, you need to be mentally prepared for destroying your health through overwork... Of course, they will always say there are no mandatory requirements... but managers will basically keep assigning you tasks during normal off-hours.....

3. Training system: There is practically no mentoring. Almost everything is assigned directly to new employees, and they never explain why. Unless you are highly perceptive, you will really just be doing odd jobs.

4. The company has almost no proposal-development capability: Most projects are obtained through personal connections; the company itself has almost no ability to pitch proposals.

5. The company has almost no capacity for innovation. Of course, these are all leading beauty brands, but the company itself does not have much creative ability. There are only a few tricks it can use. Of course, if you want to learn the basics, come on in quickly.

Forget about normal working hours. The boss will very gently tell you that the client’s demands come first, but your salary does not, and congratulations—your working hours do. The managers all come in during the afternoon, and you will stay and work until midnight with them. Don’t doubt it; usually, people leave after 10 p.m. Think about it: if your manager comes in every day after noon, they will definitely work until after 10 p.m. too~~~~
