Read the community guidelinesThis company’s HR is absolutely ridiculous.
The interview was scheduled for around 14:00, but at 13:XX on the same day, just as I was preparing to park, I received a message from HR saying they wanted to change the time???
May I ask whether your company’s HR has any basic common sense? Other people’s time matters too, doesn’t it?
I subsequently declined the request to change the time directly.
An absolutely ridiculous corporate culture.
To add, the interview location was the Linkou office, for a sales assistant position.
Everyone, steer clear at your own discretion.
You can tell it’s best to avoid this company just by looking at its Google reviews.

Sharing my experience with you all~
Just like others have said, one person has to do many jobs.
Overtime isn’t routine, but when it happens, it leaves you exhausted like a dog.
The boss’s emotional management is truly terrible.
And HR is very quick to shirk responsibility.
The funniest thing is that, from time to time, they stand behind you with a stopwatch to measure your speed.
Work is always thrown at you completely unexpectedly.
There’s a huge amount of work with short deadlines; otherwise, there’s no work and everyone slacks off.
When there’s nothing else to do, you occasionally wash the company vehicles, do some cleaning, and catch rats.
There are more rats in the company than in your love-life fishpond.
Then everyone takes turns cleaning the toilets (but the office doesn’t need to be cleaned).
Expired food occasionally appears in the company snack area.
And there’s a thousand-year-old mainland ogre who bullies people in the workplace (be very careful to avoid her—she’s an extremely scheming fake goody-goody, and she secretly opens other people’s lockers, so be careful).
Last time, the company didn’t order boxed lunches; after waiting nearly an hour, they finally said they had forgotten to order them.
There are also two engineers, but they always have different opinions, so things can easily go completely wrong.
No perfect-attendance bonus, no spring banquet or year-end party, no performance bonus, no holiday gift payments, employee dinners are capped at 300, and they often calculate salaries incorrectly.
Every day at work, my brain shrinks flatter than my paycheck.

I'm here to help everyone avoid this pitfall~
1. You have to juggle multiple roles alone, and no one will thank you. It's normal to be blamed first whenever there's a problem.
2. It's a family business, so you have to watch people's moods. Even people with excellent stress tolerance can't withstand the mental and physical abuse, along with unprovoked outbursts and table-pounding.
3. You work very hard on the materials, only to have all your efforts dismissed with: *“Do you think I have time to read this? I don't have that much time.”*
4. The role is practically equivalent to being a secretary. In addition to handling work matters, you also have to take care of private schedules.
There are no drawbacks you can't imagine—it's practically a workplace horror story.
That's all. If you can accept these basic points, you can test your own stress tolerance by giving it a try. After all, the only thing you'll learn here is improved stress tolerance; your other professional abilities will effectively remain at zero.
Good relationships among colleagues
1. There is a significant gap between the job title and the actual job responsibilities.
2. The handover of work from supervisors is unclear.
3. The company has no systematic processes and operates entirely according to the boss’s mood.
4. The job requires cross-departmental collaboration on a daily basis.
5. The company is a family business.
6. There is no training and no company banquet.
7. Overtime pay is not calculated in accordance with the Labor Standards Act.
8. Official equipment must be taken home, and the boss will contact you after work.
9. The boss lacks emotional control.
Good relationships with colleagues; no other advantages.
1. Family business
2. Everyone in the family has poor emotional control
3. Supervisors give conflicting instructions, making it difficult to work
4. You are expected to do many tasks outside your job responsibilities
1. The environment is very clean; the floors have to be swept and mopped every morning.
2. There are no cockroaches or rats in the work environment.
3. Taking leave will not be made difficult.
1. There is no overtime pay, and the workday is often 10 hours long.
2. The company underreports employees’ basic salaries for health insurance purposes.
3. The entire family has poor emotional control.
4. The boss and the boss’s wife give different instructions, making it difficult to work.
5. You will be asked to do many tasks both within and outside your job responsibilities.
