Read the community guidelinesCompared with other moving companies, the work partners are relatively young and easy to get along with. They are willing to teach and pass on knowledge, share experience, and hold informal gatherings after work, etc.
1. The company has been operating for 5–6 years, but has no systems or relevant regulations whatsoever. Everything is decided by the boss (with a typical exploitative-boss mindset). Customers come first, while workers’ rights are truly placed last of all.
2. Although the company helps employees enroll in labor and health insurance, if someone is injured at work, the company provides no assistance whatsoever (the employee must handle the labor and health insurance claims independently), and no wages are paid during the period when the employee is unable to work due to the injury. There have even been cases where employees injured at work were told to see a doctor on their own, or were asked to finish the job first (because there was no manpower available to provide support).
3. Although there is a large volume of work, the company engages in price-cutting competition, so the pay is relatively poor.
4. There is a large volume of work, and correspondingly an overwhelming number of miscellaneous tasks, such as delivering cardboard boxes, collecting return loads, and handling garbage. The key point is that none of the above is included in the wages, and the costs of garbage disposal and invoice taxes must also be shared with the company.
5. Pay is not transparent. As mentioned above, the company’s breakdown of accounts is entirely decided by the company (the boss and the boss’s wife), and they cannot clearly provide accurate breakdown figures (e.g., fuel costs, tolls, per-job commission percentage, garbage disposal, and invoice taxes). P.S. There was one time when the salary was calculated incorrectly, with a discrepancy of nearly NT$10,000.
6. The boss is very petty and cannot stand employees being too close to one another. He often tries to create divisions and form factions behind the scenes. This stems from the fact that the boss himself left another moving company to start his own business, using tactics such as poaching customers and engaging in price-cutting competition along the way. That is why he has now become an exploitative boss, deeply afraid that his own employees will turn out like he did.
