There are too many to count. Working here gives you firsthand experience of the bottom line of Taiwan’s exploitative bosses. 1. The Labor Standards Act stipulates that there is no probationary period, but here the probationary period is whatever they say it is. During the probationary period, there is no overtime pay and no scheduled days off. The longest probationary periods range from three months to two years. 2. The boss does not understand cost control. They only care about output and keep demanding that things be done faster, faster, faster, implying that you should work unpaid overtime. The ridiculous thing is that management cannot sell the products, so the costs are shifted onto the employees. 3. Management does not know how to manage, and the operators do not know how to run the business. The company’s direction is chaotic. They want to meddle in everything but are unwilling to hire specialists, so employees have to handle everything.
The colleagues are very nice.
1. You are essentially hired to do contract work for the professor. The workday is 9 hours, but the extra hour is not counted as overtime and is unpaid.
Every other week is a rest week, but even when you work overtime on Saturdays, the overtime pay may not be included. You have to calculate it yourself. The overtime pay is only 1,000, which does not comply with the Labor Standards Act.
2. Basically, you are treated as a laborer. While you are working, they will ask you to do other tasks, and then criticize you for being too slow with your original work progress. Do employees have clones?
3. You have to wash the professor’s dishes, clean up the kitchen he has messed up, and dispose of food scraps and fruit peels.
4. They use fresh graduates to apply for a youth employment subsidy and collect the subsidy. After three months, they dismiss you without warning or cut your pay. They deceive you by saying that they need to return the government labor insurance subsidy, so they ask you to write a voluntary resignation letter, then put you on unpaid leave. Later, they say that because you did not work a full month, your salary is calculated by the number of days worked.
5. When paying your salary, they only criticize your output as being very poor and show you no respect.
6. The employee turnover rate is very high.
Occasionally, watermelon and boiled corn are available in the afternoon.
1) Poor communication between supervisors, who keep passing the buck, leaving those doing the work at a loss.
2) Project delays are often caused by the instructor's constant changes of mind and revisions, and ultimately the projects are abandoned without resolution.
3) The instructor who is always talking about salaries and costs actually spends very little time creating or providing guidance on work. At the beginning, they even said they would mentor newcomers?
Suitable for young people who don’t have many ideas and are the type to work hard and get things done.
The environment is full of flies and biting midges, and there is no air conditioning.
Hired under the guise of being an apprentice, but in reality made to do labor. The workday is 9 hours, with every other week off, no overtime pay, and little to learn because you are expected to help the teacher increase the volume of work produced. The company also participates in government youth programs to receive wage subsidies, then dismisses new hires without warning after they have worked for three months, treating young people entering the workforce as disposable chopsticks.
Suitable for people returning to work and mothers; once you get the hang of it, you can keep doing it.
Nine-hour workdays, with no overtime pay
