When you take leave to return home, you’ll get a wake-up call asking you to get out of bed and deal with problems.
The IT department doesn’t care whether you’re on leave returning home; if there’s a problem, they’ll call you and demand updates every hour.
When expatriate employees leave, they cannot obtain a certificate of employment termination because they are locally employed, and local law does not require such certificates to be issued.

Easy to get hired
I originally thought there were so many posts because former employees would inevitably complain. Now I just want to tell anyone reading this: listen to what your college seniors have to say, and don’t think you’re the exception.
The advantage is that it is mandatory to fill this in.
Employees assigned abroad are required to plan the dates of their return-to-Taiwan leave for the following year by the end of the year.
However, when requesting return-to-Taiwan leave, your supervisor will tell you, "We hope you can cooperate by canceling your return-to-Taiwan leave."
If this happened once, that would be one thing, but it has happened many times.
Finally, 2–3 days before you are scheduled to board your flight back to Taiwan, you are told that you have been laid off.
Very easy to get hired
The location discussed during the interview was Vietnam
but in the end, I was assigned to Cambodia
During salary negotiations, the 104 headhunter said: 14 months’ salary per year, but the local contract upon joining was for 13 months’ salary per year.
If you report this to HR, HR will tell you that you can file a complaint against the 104 headhunter.
Taiwanese employees with one year of seniority can be considered senior employees.

A company that is very easy to get hired by because it is seriously understaffed, with a very high employee turnover rate.
The employee turnover rate is very high; a good place to experience “workplace PUA.”
The interview is simple, and you get to hear some flattering lines.
They continue recruiting for overseas assignments even though the assignment has not been approved by 104.
During the interview, they say it is for Ligo International Trade, but after you go abroad and arrive locally, it becomes a local subsidiary (there will be no labor or health insurance), along with various changes to the offer, each one worse than the last.
They emphasize a responsibility-based work system, yet the HR personnel do not even know what that means. Overtime pay? (How hilarious.)
To deal with local inspections, they require you to sign a fake offer (in the local language; after signing it, you do not even know when it might be passed off as genuine).
Former employees who were forced out pointed out that senior HR personnel would require them to sign a “voluntary resignation” while restricting their access to the factory area. They would then demand that they leave on the grounds that they were “no longer employees of this factory.” When mediation began after returning home, they showed no sincerity whatsoever, immediately hiring a lawyer and saying, “I don’t know this person,” “He is from an overseas subsidiary,” and “I don’t know what this has to do with us.” The HR person in charge might even arrive late or fail to appear.
Anyone with the courage should definitely give it a try—it is absolutely a great place to train yourself!
The following comments are for the Finance and Accounting Department.
Overtime pay is provided for overtime work (advance application is required).
The work is very fulfilling; there is always something to do...
During monthly closing, there is at least about one week of overtime until 11 p.m.
The atmosphere among colleagues is not good.
The supervisor needs to improve their temper control.
