Read the community guidelinesThere are many advantages
The department is managed like the military, letting you experience the company’s most hardcore conservative style
The clients are very nice—they look for you every day to hold meetings, drink coffee, and discuss product design and pricing
The boss is excellent—every day, they have you shoulder responsibilities, so you learn how to withstand pressure
The technology parent company will definitely let you enjoy the attitude of communicating by carrier pigeon
After leaving here, I believe you’ll feel like you’ve been discharged from the military
None, hehe
None
If you have connections in management, you can easily achieve good performance and earn a high salary; if you don't know anyone, you're exploited and worked to the point of resigning.
There are no advantages; working there was very unpleasant.
At the mold factory, section manager Fang Zhichong throws his weight around on the shop floor, relying on his position as section manager. In every meeting, any problems are always blamed on the technicians below him. Whenever there isn't enough time to complete a mold, they hold hundreds of meetings, and the final conclusion is always that the technicians are too slow. Whenever he discusses matters, he only knows how to raise his voice. Relying on his position as section manager, if he cannot win an argument, he just gets louder and louder. He has driven away many employees; if he dislikes someone, he finds a way to transfer them to another unit. You cannot use your own ideas—you must follow his methods (which are neither particularly fast nor convenient). Every so often, he tells you to hurry up, hurry up. Many people are afraid of being scolded, and after being scolded, they take out their frustration on us.

HR has poor ethics (violates your personal rights)
Supervisors maliciously deduct bonuses (performance bonuses and year-end bonuses), with no system whatsoever
The company favors “its own people”; even an inconspicuous or completely incompetent person may have family connections or influential backing
Does not respect the voices of frontline employees; instead, you may be treated as someone who has too many problems
There is a welfare office; stable.
The senior employee kept working overtime. On my very first day, they asked whether I wanted to work overtime, and then asked every day. They only agreed after I gave in to their sympathy tactics. In the end, I worked overtime while they went home (my thinking was that working together would make it less tiring). It turned out that the team leader did not allow me to work overtime at all, wanting me to adapt first. In the end, the new employee supposedly knows nothing—after work, LINE was flooded with messages about what had not been done properly. I resigned two days later.
University graduates start at around 33K
Overtime pay complies with the Labor Standards Act
High travel allowances: USD 68 per day in North America and USD 45 per day in mainland China (meals during business trips are self-funded)
The office atmosphere is relatively harmonious
You may spend up to nine months a year in mainland China. When traveling for business, whether to North America or mainland China, working more than 75 hours of overtime per month is considered normal.
Salary adjustments are extremely slow. I once saw someone who had worked there for over ten years earning about the same as me. (The company basically expects you to make money by going on business trips.)
The company strongly encourages overtime, and working on Saturdays is a common occurrence.
There are many relatives of senior executives. In this family-run business, knowing how to drink and flatter the higher-ups is the fastest way to get promoted.
Lots of meaningless 5S tasks.
The company's personnel system is incomplete, and departments may be reassigned arbitrarily. This also means you may be sent on business trips elsewhere, contrary to what was stated during the interview.
Turnover in the R&D department is extremely high. You can hardly see anyone at the mid-level; there are only many newcomers and veterans, and the newcomers come and go, with roughly one rotation every year or so.
Training takes place outside working hours, and there is no overtime pay.
The company works with a Japanese company, so it is difficult for it to go under—but that does not mean you will not be forced to resign.
Currently none
After being injured at work and taking occupational injury leave, the person still has to go on stage and report at the company's all-hands meeting, held only once in a long while and attended by hundreds of employees, explaining the cause of the injury. It is quite humiliating.
1. The employee cafeteria is subsidized, so each meal costs only a little over 20 dollars.
2. There is a company store, as well as delivery services.
3. The company coordinates with the automaker’s summer vacation schedule.
4. There is no need to clock in or out when arriving at or leaving work.
1. The employee cafeteria’s food is really unappetizing.
2. There are too few parking spaces for cars on the premises.
3. The company favors “its own people”; even an unremarkable employee may have family connections or influential backing.
4. The company has been striving for innovation in recent years, but the managers remain conservative and self-centered. They only seek to avoid criticism from upper management while ignoring the voices of lower-level employees.
5. The company does not respect the voices of frontline employees. Closed-door discussions take priority, procedures are rigid and inflexible, and management is unable to understand employees’ demands.
6. The company goes back on its word when implementing policies. It issues announcements without effectively considering various circumstances, causing extreme inconvenience for employees.
The salary is not high but stable
Conservative and bound by conventions
Outdated thinking
Unwilling to change
