This is not intended to start an argument; I’m simply sharing my personal experience. If someone with firsthand experience had shared the truth before I submitted my résumé, I would not have chosen this company again, even if I still had not found a suitable job opportunity.
Before joining this company, I couldn’t find any reviews or experience-sharing posts about it online. Unfortunately, I don’t have a PTT account, so I’m posting this here in the hope that no one else will be led astray!
First, the company seriously violates the Labor Standards Act. From April 2019 onward, during my employment, the company did not contribute the required 6% retirement pension for employees (I confirmed by phone with the Bureau of Labor Insurance that the contributions were still outstanding). On my first day of employment, the company also did not enroll me in labor insurance immediately, claiming that the process normally takes a few extra days. After asking privately, I discovered that some colleagues had been working for half a month or even a month before being enrolled. In some cases, labor insurance premiums were deducted from paychecks even though the employees had not been insured. The company shows an extreme disregard for employees’ rights.
Second, the company has serious financial problems. Any vendors that have done business with this company know that it often delays payment for goods and even denies payment. As a result, nearly all vendors require payment to be confirmed before shipping. This alone is enough to demonstrate that the company has poor financial credibility. If you know any small or medium-sized vendors that do business with battery manufacturers, you can ask around. Lih Jung Technology’s reputation has been ruined; some vendors have even stated outright that the company has been placed on their blacklist and will never be allowed to do business with them again. Consequently, the company is always looking for new vendors. Once a vendor has completed several transactions and finds that payment is being delayed, it eventually no longer wants to do business with the company. The company then has to find another new vendor, creating a vicious cycle.
Third, beginning in late 2019, the company started delaying employees’ salaries, without notifying them in advance. Although the salaries were eventually paid, it was very worrying that this might become the norm.
Fourth, the owner did not make the required 6% labor pension contributions for employees, causing colleagues who left involuntarily to be unable to claim unemployment benefits.
Fifth, whether an employee resigns voluntarily or involuntarily, the final wages owed are almost always delayed. If employees do not proactively follow up, it is effectively treated as if they have waived the payment. Some colleagues have even failed to receive the full wages owed to them by Mr. Lee despite complying with the company’s work rules.
Sixth, after inquiring with the Labor Bureau, I learned that this company had continually received payment-demand notices from the bureau, and that its fines had accumulated considerably. Although I worked there for only half a year, I had already received calls from the Labor Bureau looking for the owner. Even when Mr. Lee was paged over the intercom to answer the phone, he would almost always let it ring until the call disconnected. The reason was simple: nearly all the incoming calls were from vendors, and eight out of ten of them were asking when their outstanding payments would be settled.
I used to wonder why these vendors did not take legal action to recover the money they were owed. In most cases, it was because Mr. Lee would communicate with the vendors in good faith, asking them to understand that the company was growing and that once customers had stable orders, the orders placed with vendors would increase as well, creating a win-win situation. This kind of arrangement can indeed be negotiated by many small companies and businesses. However, regardless of whether the company is profitable or the number of orders increases, business transactions still depend on credibility. Unfortunately, Mr. Lee’s credit record in this regard is extremely poor.
Basically, I think this industry can be profitable. However, the company has two owners, and the two owners frequently disagree with each other, resulting in serious problems with the way the company is managed. Major improvements are urgently needed. The organizational atmosphere of a company must first be shaped by leaders setting an example. If the owners themselves do not do the right thing, how can they expect the company to develop well? Talented employees certainly will not stay either.
It’s been almost a year since I left, and I came back to take a look. I didn’t expect it to be this lively.
Let me talk about my experience at this company.
I worked on the production line, so I’ll only comment on that side. I didn’t know the people in the office well, so I won’t comment on them.
There were very few people on the production line.
There were only four of us in total: the supervisor, one chubby person, one skinny person, and me.
The supervisor was very polite and knowledgeable, and was very good at managing the production line. However, he was too soft-hearted and was often called around to do various things.
The chubby person was easy to get along with and was also quite capable at work.
At the time, I learned assembly and testing with him. He only had to teach something once for him to understand it, while I had to hear it at least two or three times before I could get it, which put me under a lot of pressure...
The skinny person was completely different. Everything had to be taught to him many times before he could learn it. That alone wouldn’t have been a problem—people say diligence can make up for lack of ability—but he wasn’t diligent. He was often slacking off or hiding somewhere to play on his phone. I mostly quit because I found it exhausting to work with him.
The boss was pretty nice.
Quite polite, too.
Overall, it was just average, but the atmosphere was pretty good.
We often had to work overtime, and it was exhausting...
The broadest stage, the strongest support, and the greatest opportunity to succeed, be happy, and feel a sense of accomplishment.
More capable, confident partners who want to be happy and build successful careers need to join.
It was actually quite fun when we were messing around and doing things randomly.
If you want to improve your English conversation, talk more with the foreign bosses.
They owed people money, delayed salaries, and had all kinds of other problems—many people already know about it.
Once, before the New Year, we worked overtime until 2 a.m. It was absolutely insane.
The reason was that they owed money and couldn't get materials, so they couldn't ship orders. No one dared to supply them with materials.
Then they crammed everything together for shipment at the end of the month, working overtime until we were dead tired.
The boss's wife was also neurotic, occasionally going crazy for no reason.
Hehe.
The coworkers were all easy to get along with.
However, there was a short, crew-cut guy who hid in the restroom slacking off all day.
He had a strange, moody temperament, occasionally giggling foolishly like an idiot.
He was completely incompetent at his job, and he was always paid in cash envelopes—he was probably involved in something shady outside of work.
There was also a busty married woman who was quite flirtatious. Once, when she helped connect a plug to a product for testing,
her cleavage was right in front of me and fully exposed. She didn't cover it at all, which immediately made me horny.
The work environment was bad too, honestly.
They couldn't even distinguish scrap materials from materials prepared for use, and they piled things out on the stairs.
The entire wall, tables, and racks where the test products were connected were covered with wires, transformers, and other equipment.
There was wooden paneling behind them. Anyone with a bit of understanding would know how dangerous this setup was.
The large transformers' plugs had burned out an unknown number of times.
Once, while working overtime,
the plug and wires of a test product even caught fire. Fortunately, we noticed it immediately.
Fortunately, I was only there for a few months to pass the time between jobs.
Damn, it was truly an exciting place.
The company is very good at saving money!

The company owes vendors payment for goods and also fails to pay employees' labor pension contributions. The evidence is all here—think carefully before getting involved!
1. Those who are good at being mistreated may want to give it a try.
2. Very suitable for people who dislike socializing. The thoughtful boss is worried that employees may have interpersonal conflicts, so communication is prohibited!
3. If you dream of having the opportunity to perform on an illusory stage, you can come and experience it. The boss will give you an unforgettable performance for life!
4. Even though the company owes a lot of money externally, it still works very hard to keep operating, solely so employees have jobs to support their families!
5. The boss likes high-pressure training to help employees grow quickly, rapidly increasing their ability to withstand pressure!
6. The boss does not provide labor-pension insurance, because they will give you more salary instead to save on other expenses!
No drawbacks
The boss is a very thoughtful person. Knowing that employees are short of money, they want employees to work overtime frequently to earn more money. Whenever employees communicate with one another, they will be called to the meeting room so the boss can show concern for what is wrong—whether they said something—and, worried that employees may not get along, gradually reduce activities such as group dinners.
Because this boss works too hard—so hard that they forgot they had mentioned benefits such as year-end banquets and year-end bonuses—it is truly exhausting. How could such a good boss have any drawbacks?
I’m happy to have left this hellish company.
The female boss is truly outrageous.
Someone above already mentioned her lack of integrity, so I won’t repeat that.
Another thing is that delays in product progress are often caused by her own mistakes,
yet she always shifts the blame onto others.
Then she casually picks someone to take the fall and fires them.
It’s truly outrageous.
Those who are fired not only don’t receive their pay in lieu of notice,
but even the salary they should receive for that month is repeatedly delayed.
Sigh… just sharing my personal experience.
