An opportunity to sexually harass female colleagues

If the female colleague you harass reports it to her supervisor, she will be fired, forcing you to look for a new target.

Below is the victim’s court judgment: https://law.judicial.gov.tw/FJUD/data.aspx?ty=JD&id=TPDV%2c109%2c%e5%8b%9e%e8%a8%b4%2c403%2c20210616%2c1

If you like being sexually harassed, come here.

The supervisor is a creep, and the rest of the company enables him.

Court-certified violation of Article 13, Paragraph 2, and Article 36 of the Gender Equality in Employment Act—truly something to be proud of.

Searching for the keyword finds: “The employer failed to fulfill its duty to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace and imposed adverse treatment because the employee filed a complaint under the Gender Equality in Employment Act.” In short, after an employee reported being sexually harassed by a supervisor, they were pressured to resign. The company’s original promise to take responsibility turned into having the employee sign a voluntary resignation letter, receiving no severance pay, and being prohibited from making statements unfavorable to the company after leaving. The company’s behavior during the lawsuit was even more disgraceful. All women are urged to think carefully before accepting a position at this company.

1. Well-equipped with work tools. Every designer gets a main monitor plus a drawing monitor, while animators can have two monitors plus a drawing monitor. As long as there is a reasonable work-related need, you can request it.

2. The company is willing to invest in its employees. In addition to professional development, requests for the company to purchase books or plugins are approved very quickly. They have tried to let designers spend their time on design rather than mechanical operations.

3. Short working hours. The scheduled hours are 10:00–18:00, but 1.5 hours of that is lunch break, so the actual daily working time is only 6.5 hours.

4. If you go out to lunch with the boss, the boss will treat you. If you do not want to go, you only need to say that you will eat later. (You can also bring your own lunch and heat it up in the microwave.)

5. Although the boss studied medicine, they have knowledge of typography, layout, design, animation, programming, and law (a true top student...). They also continue to follow new information. If an employee is discussing new technology, the boss may crouch beside them and listen (if there is no chair to pull over, or if they are standing).

6. The design team has a strong voice. There are project managers dedicated to dealing with clients and sending work to print. If overtime is needed to complete a project (overtime pay is provided), the project manager will usually ask rather than demand it. (If no one internally has time, they may look for an external contractor.)

7. Menstrual leave is available (not for men, of course).

1. Most commercial work is bought out by clients, so relatively few projects can be made public. Hopefully there will be more self-initiated projects that can be publicly released in the future.

2. The boss wears many hats (in addition to running the company, they also handle copywriting, academia, creative direction, and so on). Although purchases can be approved very quickly, things that cannot be implemented immediately (such as process improvements) may take a long time to be carried out.

3. (Not sure whether this counts as a disadvantage.) You need to be willing to strive and learn. Taking animators as an example, they need to know how to use plugins and expressions to improve efficiency and further enhance quality. The company even has internally developed plugins to simplify the process of adding subtitles. People who only rely on manually entering keyframes cannot stay. In the past, an animator was actually fired for refusing to learn.

<1>Eight-hour workdays, with the possibility of leaving on time; working hours are relatively flexible

<2>The colleagues are lovely and easy to get along with

<3>Enjoyable meals

<1>Employees have to fight for company benefits themselves. Benefits the boss has mentioned are easily forgotten; without asking, they may disappear without a trace, but asking could cause the employee to fall out of favor

<2>The boss tends to act first and explain afterward. For example, without discussing it with the employee responsible for a project or informing the business team, the boss publicly reassigned the employee’s project to an intern whom the boss considered highly capable. The boss also dislikes holding meetings and tends to tell one employee everything about the company, treating that as though the entire staff had already been informed

<3>The boss, who has a medical background, opened a class to teach the company’s animators the animation skills he learned independently. However, this training was not included in the contract, and there was homework that had to be completed at home. When one employee believed this was not part of the job and refused, the boss fired them in a fit of anger on the very day the homework was not submitted. Other employees were working in the next room and could hear the scolding. In front of everyone and the interns, the boss said that the employee was less capable than the intern. This happened at a company with fewer than 10 employees

<4>Before the end of the workday on the day that employee was fired, while the remaining employees were still shocked and upset about their colleague’s dismissal, the intern was immediately promoted to a full-time employee. There was no meeting, explanation, or introduction, and the intern was also assigned to sit at the fired employee’s desk that same day

<5>When the boss is dissatisfied with an employee, they do not arrange a direct discussion. Instead, they tend to let the employee find out indirectly through another employee. The employee is always stunned because the workplace seems harmonious and friendly, and they have always believed the boss was satisfied with their abilities. The boss almost never discusses their dissatisfaction with the employee privately, only making a couple of remarks during breaks in the workday, and those remarks are usually vague and euphemistic

<6>In the past, when discussing one- to two-minute animations, employees hoped to have at least one month to complete them. They also discussed the entire workflow with the boss so the boss would understand the difficulty of the work and the time required for the project. The boss agreed at the time and expressed understanding, but over time still became dissatisfied, believing the employees were too slow, and then questioned their abilities because of their speed

<7>This year, the boss hopes to have {3 days for the draft}{3 days for production setup}{3 days for animation}

<8>Although the boss speaks candidly with employees and says that they can raise any problems, and even encourages them to do so, discussions may seem very agreeable at the time, making employees think a consensus has been reached. However, it becomes apparent afterward that the boss may not actually see it that way, and the original meaning may be misinterpreted

<9>The level of animation polish depends entirely on personal preference. It is subjective and has no clear standard, making it difficult to determine what the boss wants. The boss prefers a particular style, and work that does not match their taste may be considered unacceptable

(1) Work hours are from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and you can usually leave on time (if you finish your work).

(2) The coworkers are all very nice and easy to get along with.

(3) The company provides snacks. As long as the “administrative staff” are still around, they will keep restocking them.

(4) The boss “seems” very sincere.

(5) Taking leave does not result in a deduction from that day’s pay (so taking leave too many times makes it easy to be remembered—for example, once a month).

(1) The boss really likes eating with employees, so even break time feels a lot like entertaining a client (everyone pays for their own meal).

(2) The benefits are inadequate, and various benefits depend on the boss’s mood.

(3) The company is a start-up and had only been established for a little over two days, so there are no senior managers or employees internally who can guide you. You have to solve many things yourself. The boss does not understand the professional aspects of this industry and has only learned the basics.

(4) The company’s clients are almost all pharmaceutical companies (most of the company’s work consists of animation projects, manuals, and layout work). Pharmaceutical company clients often have more conservative mindsets, so the work cannot be too youthful or creative. For example, animations tend to be more like PowerPoint animations. The work is not fulfilling, and the portfolio you build may make it difficult to move on to a better company.

(5) For a 2–3 minute motion animation project, the boss requires the storyboard to be completed in “three days” (the projects are all medical content, and designers need to first absorb and process a lot of information before they can develop the content); coloring the drafts digitally must also be completed in “three days”; and the animation is likewise required to be completed in “three days” (three to five days, but if it takes five days, you will definitely be criticized). I believe people in the same industry can imagine from these deadlines that the quality cannot be very good, but if the work looks too ugly, you will still be criticized.

(6) The boss often forgets things, especially matters related to benefits, so employees have to advocate for themselves.

(7) Once you are labeled, you can never shake it off. No matter how much time passes, you will still be criticized, and this may even become a reason for not giving you a raise.

Overall, regarding the company’s situation: since it is a start-up, it has the various advantages and disadvantages of a start-up.

The convenience of various things is actually based on the company’s lack of完善 systems, and the company is not very stable either.

I think designers who want to join this company need to consider their future direction carefully; if things go badly, it may be difficult to find another job later.

To be honest, the company’s work is almost always very boring and has no competitiveness, leaning heavily toward graphic production work.

Especially for animators, the boss requires them to complete their work using “plugins,” believing that animators who hand-key animations are not fit to be animators because it wastes too much time. Over time, the role becomes more like that of an After Effects technician.

I hope you will not see the cute character designs, logos, and cute websites on the company’s social media page and decide to come give it a try. On actual projects, there is rarely enough time—or client approval—for you to produce work at that level of quality, so please consider this carefully.

Workplace sexual harassment, court-certified

#Real experience feedback #I can only help you this much

One of the bosses is extremely emotional and unpredictable in their attitude. Think twice before joining. Even if interactions go smoothly nine times out of ten, just one incident of them turning against you is enough to leave you stunned and regretting the effort and time you once devoted to this company.

Although the boss is well-read, they use their knowledge to study how to mock and negate others without using profanity, and they always prioritize their own interests. Being in this kind of environment over the long term can have very negative effects, gradually turning employees into depressed and self-doubting people without them realizing it. (Fortunately, I realized what was happening and got out quickly; I’m currently slowly recovering my mental health...)

In terms of management, I don’t know what the problem is, but everyone is always struggling on the edge, and employees often need to work overtime as well. I suggest thinking twice before submitting your résumé.

To be honest, I feel sorry for the boss too. They may have psychological issues themselves. I recommend that only people with an excess of compassion who are willing to tolerate abnormal behavior consider working with them, taking on the role of an unpaid psychological caregiver.

A criminal group collectively committing or condoning sexual harassment

Disgusting

Excerpt

Jian Qun nevertheless continued as before. Despite knowing that she already had a boyfriend, he continued, without cause, to sexually harass her during working hours with sexually suggestive or gender-discriminatory remarks, such as sending her the following via the messaging software LINE or Slack: “Come on! Fuck me from the front”

The company 好棒棒 and Zhang Jinghe had not adopted any concrete measures to “prevent sexual harassment” before the aforementioned sexual harassment incidents occurred.

This group of men should reincarnate as soon as possible; there is nothing that can be improved.

The court confirmed violations of Article 13, Paragraph 2, and Article 36 of the Gender Equality in Employment Act.

The boss seems like a really nice person.

The boss being a nice person is just an illusion; behind your back, they may criticize you as if you were worthless.

Um... salaries are paid on time, and the coworkers are easy to get along with.

The boss is by far the biggest problem in the whole company.

1) If he wants to eat with everyone, you still have to take the initiative to invite him.

2) If he dislikes an employee, he will not say so directly; he will discuss it with other employees.

3) He likes to avoid clarifying design requirements and tells the designers to create whatever he likes. He gets upset when questioned, and in the end, when the client gives feedback, he makes major changes all over again. Just the revisions alone can go on forever ^^ Great job.

4) The designs also have to accommodate the boss’s strange style, which makes things extremely difficult.

5) He acts on impulse, does things first and reports afterward, and does whatever he feels like doing.

6) He is very good at making grand promises; after joining, you discover that things are nothing like what he said.

7) The investments he promises are all fake investments; he is only willing to spend money when it benefits him.

8) He appears very sincere and puts a lot of effort into appearances, but over time you will see his true character.
