A standard garbage company, a sweatshop.
I urge all fellow countrymen:
Unless you are completely desperate!
The gray-market industry, gambling industry, black organizations,
telecommunications fraud industry ... if you have no other choice,
only then come here for an interview or to join the company!

A typical garbage company, exploiting its employees.

Only come here for an interview or to take a job

Recently learned to use HR to manipulate reviews.
1. The secretary is often unclear about the situation. They don't take meeting minutes but frequently express their opinions; if that were useful, it would be one thing, but they also cause trouble for others. Their strength, however, is that they are very good at serving senior management, rise quickly, and are unbelievably arrogant.
2. They really like rehiring former employees. The fact that they rehire people from bad workplaces is truly horrifying when you think about it.
3. They are “always” selling grand promises; once they lure you in, it’s all kinds of exploitation.
4. There are no benefits or systems, and there are no raises unless you are especially good at making a fuss.
The recent positive reviews were fabricated, so don't be fooled.
1. Constantly requires everyone to move offices
2. The job responsibilities and workload described during the interview are completely inconsistent with reality
3. Senior management really likes sending messages on weekends or at night
4. Loves holding meetings; there are so many that you'll cry
5. Decisions are illogical; it's a one-person show
The colleagues at the coffee shop are all very friendly, making it enjoyable to work there. They are warm and highly professional. Since I had no relevant experience before, I learned a lot of new coffee knowledge. All the shops are pretty good, both internally and externally, and they provide very attentive service to suppliers and customers. I believe that if I ever leave here one day, I’ll be able to open my own coffee shop, haha.
There aren’t many flavor options for the coffee beans. The company has certain flavors it prefers; they’re distinctive, but they just happen not to be flavors I like~
The interview lasted approximately 30 minutes. It began with a self-introduction and an overview of my previous experience listed on my résumé. The manager asked about my motivation for applying for this position and gave a general introduction to the hotel’s expectations for the marketing role. I described my previous experience with branded products, marketing and media campaign proposals for rooms and food and beverage, and several cross-industry collaboration projects I had handled.
At the end, I asked when I could expect to receive the interview results. The interviewing manager replied that it would be no later than one week, and that HR would contact me at that time. The interview took place in a private dining room on the second floor of the hotel. The interviewer explained everything clearly and systematically. Overall, the environment and atmosphere were elegant and upscale, and the location was in the conveniently accessible Xinyi District commercial area. I look forward to receiving an employment offer notification from HR soon.
The location is in Xinyi District, where the cost of living and everyday expenses are relatively high.
I was applying for a food and beverage business supervisor position.
The interview process went very smoothly. We mainly used 104 to confirm a mutually convenient time first, and then, once the time was confirmed, they provided the interview address. After arriving at the hotel, I first checked in at the front desk.
There was a small incident: I took the MRT to the interview, but the train encountered a minor accident on the way and service was suspended for quite a while. I quickly used 104’s messaging function to let them know I would be late, and received a response immediately, which made me feel much more at ease! The interviewing supervisor was also understanding of the difficulties job seekers face~~ It was a good start to the job, at least showing that the supervisor was easy to communicate with!! Although having a sense of time and being punctual are important qualities, unexpected situations can sometimes arise along the way, so I still hope there can be some flexibility!
The questions asked by the interviewing supervisor were actually very ordinary and not tricky at all! They mainly wanted to confirm how I would plan to expand the food and beverage business and improve its performance if I had the opportunity to join the company!
They also asked about my previous work experience, especially my food-and-beverage-related experience at each stage of my career. This was considered one of my strengths, so I was able to get up to speed quickly~ However, I had had relatively little exposure to business development in the past, and the supervisor seemed somewhat dissatisfied with this point.
At the beginning of the interview, I was asked whether I wanted a cup of coffee. This was also a big plus, as it immediately helped reduce my nervousness~~
The job description on 104 was complete, but the salary was listed as negotiable, leaving out one indicator for judging whether the position was suitable for me. After all, salary is also an important reference when deciding whether a position is a good fit! However, many companies express it this way~~ As long as the salary is over 40,000, they can state it as negotiable~~ This leaves more room for imagination, but also creates more uncertainty~~
I participated in an interview for a position in the IT department. When I arrived, the hotel's secretary first welcomed me to the interview area. Since the interview took place in a private room in the hotel's restaurant, a server poured me some water as soon as I sat down. The interviewer then asked me to explain my professional background and past IT work experience, and also gave me a detailed explanation of the position's development opportunities, salary, company benefits, and more. I felt that it closely matched my expectations, and I thought working in a hotel environment would be great.
Because it is a service industry position, I asked whether the working hours would be longer, but this has not yet been clearly answered.
I interviewed for a front-of-house junior management position in the food and beverage industry. The restaurant manager conducted the interview, which mainly focused on explaining the job responsibilities and the requirements for the position. After reviewing my past experience in the food and beverage industry, they briefly mentioned that my previous experience was primarily related to banquet halls, so I might need to spend some time learning the finer details of providing higher-priced Chinese dining services here.
They also confirmed my available start date, expected salary, and so on. The interview process was fairly smooth. At the beginning, they even asked whether I wanted some coffee, which made me feel pleasantly surprised.
They explained that employee meals are provided as boxed lunches, unlike my previous experience, where there was an employee cafeteria. Meal times are therefore more flexible, but based on my past experience, boxed lunches may sometimes not be provided on time.
When I asked about future promotions and salary adjustments for managers, I did not receive a clear answer at this point.
The pace of work is fast, but working hours are flexible, and taking leave or adjusting start and end times is fairly easy. The main thing is to manage your own work progress. There is coffee available every day, along with employee meals, or you can choose to exchange the meal for a coffee voucher—so you can have STAND coffee every day~
The offices of the various departments are quite far apart, so it can sometimes be time-consuming when you need to find another colleague. Staff turnover in the HR department is high, so occasionally it can be difficult to find the right contact for HR-related questions. Other aspects of the work are quite good.
The company’s employee turnover is very high.
The boss has many affiliated companies.
Managers from related internal group units or another company owned by the boss often come in to help manage the business.
There are often too many people giving orders.
The atmosphere within the company is very gossipy.
The information security team monitors conversations on public communication software.
Salaries and benefits are at the bare minimum.
There are simply 12 months of salary.
Holiday bonuses are one or two thousand dollars.
There are no other subsidies or benefits, such as year-end banquets or employee trips.
I gave up decisively after less than three days.
There was nothing that could be done.
The main problem lies with the senior executives.
The salary is higher than that for the same position at many companies, which is the biggest advantage. The office is in the heart of the business district and very close to an MRT station, making commuting convenient—another plus. In addition, there are many workplace experiences to learn from, making it suitable for people with career ambitions. Colleagues are friendly and easy to get along with.
The company's business spans many fields, so it can be relatively challenging if you are not particularly good at cross-departmental collaboration.

It has been renamed Shiraishi Co., Ltd. The HR department has been wiped out more than three times; the Sales and IT departments were completely decimated, and the Food and Beverage department has also been entirely dismantled before. The restaurant has supposedly been about to open since the beginning, but it is still a construction site—and they are still expanding to new locations. All I can say is that the owner has money. Personnel are frequently reassigned arbitrarily; one person is expected to do two jobs of entirely different natures, and then gets asked why they were not done well. Well, it is not their area of expertise. Many things have no procedures, and paper-based approval requests are a waste of life. Even after approval, they may be overturned because of one sentence from the owner. People are very frequently laid off, and there are an incredible number of layoff notifications. Those who are hired and manage to stay are usually people who already have some shortcomings.
There are no special bonuses, the benefits are poor, and “better than the industry standard” is just a joke. Being constantly told to change things every day is already enough to wear you down. If you really want to enter the hotel industry, I suggest going to a group with a long-established business. This place is not worth wasting your life on. It is terrifying—just run. This place is truly all about constantly replacing people. If you are lucky enough to see this message, cancel your interview immediately.
Are there any?!
Maybe just the fact that labor and health insurance and group insurance are provided.
Very chaotic, constantly understaffed, and people leave soon after joining.
There is no employee break room.
Many supervisors are constantly holding meetings in the B2 area, which is the only place that appears to be for employees to take breaks (next to the parking lot).
We are often told that we have to work unpaid overtime.
So many of the front-of-house staff want to leave.
We are often suddenly asked to do strange things.

If that supervisor surnamed Chen is still there, I suggest not going.... It's very shady.
In the evenings and mornings, it’s extremely idle—you can sit around playing on your phone with nothing to do. It’s only busy around noon.
If you consider yourself devious enough, you can give it a try.
A certain manager spends their work hours constantly playing Lineage M. They are very good at painting grand promises, then privately use their authority to threaten to fire employees or deduct their bonuses; they frequently engage in petty maneuvers and are always talking about their own achievements as if everything were their accomplishment. Whenever there are no customers or the boss’s trusted associates around, they yell at employees. In their previous job, they were even fired because of their conduct, and it made the news...
