You can become a manager after working here for a few months.

Managers rarely come in, and when they do, they cause chaos.

You can learn a lot because you need to take on multiple roles.

You get public holidays off, though you may be required to work overtime on holidays to accommodate events.

Everyone receives gift money for the three major holidays.

1. They are very stingy with former employees. It takes two months just to apply for an employment separation certificate. In the end, the employee had to file a complaint with the labor bureau before receiving it.

2. Employees who have not worked a full month are still charged health insurance premiums because the manager does not understand the health insurance deduction rules. You may not get the money back unless you speak up. When calling the company, you cannot reach the manager and have to ask an employee to relay the message. I heard employees were even asked to pay out of pocket, and eventually had to ask a National Health Insurance Administration staff member to call before anything happened.

3. There is annual leave, but it is not easy to actually take it. You have to come up with a reason for taking leave, and it must be considered reasonable before it is approved.

4. When criticizing employees, the wording is inappropriate. They often ask employees, “Are you an idiot?” or blame employees for all of their mistakes.

5. There is an annual bonus, but it is multiplied by your performance score. Basically, you do not receive much because they will find ways to deduct points from your score.

6. The maximum annual lucky-draw prize is 3,000, and the top prizes usually go to managers and shareholders. Not everyone even gets a prize!?

7. Unused annual leave is not paid out when you resign. You have to raise the issue before they will pay it out.

8. The salary calculation is base salary + meal allowance + perfect-attendance bonus = the salary discussed in the interview. If you are late because of a delayed train, the perfect-attendance bonus will be deducted. Annual leave is calculated based on base salary + meal allowance.

9. Turnover is high; six people can leave within six months. Very few people can stay. Things you did not do will be said to have been done by you, the manager has a terrible attitude, and employees are frequently yelled at. The company culture is extremely negative.

10. If you are not afraid of hardship or being scolded, can get things done, and do not plan to resign, then go ahead and challenge yourself at this company.

It can help develop your emotional intelligence.

There are very few employees who stay for more than a year, so turnover is very high.

The job description on the employment website does not match the actual job duties.

Overtime pay is only provided if approved by a supervisor; otherwise, overtime is not counted as paid overtime, and the amount provided does not comply with the Labor Standards Act.

The salary structure is complicated. The base salary is very low, while much of the rest consists of allowances that she can adjust at will.

Do not discard obsolete items unless you have seen the supervisor’s signed disposal form. Otherwise, the supervisor may change her mind and say she never asked for them to be discarded, and you may be required to pay for them.

The leave policy is unusually strict (you cannot request leave at short notice; applications must be submitted by the 20th of the previous month; and leave may only be taken after the reason has been approved. Annual leave is no exception).

Payment for unused annual leave also does not comply with the Labor Standards Act.

The supervisor berates people arbitrarily—even when something has nothing to do with you, as long as she can somehow tie it to you.

The supervisor frequently changes decisions and instructions without notice.

There is no comprehensive training.

Authority is kept solely in her hands, yet she is often unreachable.

You may be asked to do things unrelated to the company (such as creating election promotional graphics for a particular councilor).

You may not receive a certificate of employment separation when you leave the company.
