This page collects workplace experiences, questions and discussions submitted by users. Dates shown are submission dates, not periods of employment. Individual reports do not describe the entire company.
Read the community guidelinesYou Teng Construction Co., Ltd., Xinfu Interior Decoration Co., Ltd., and Yifu Furniture Co., Ltd. are all the same company.
The lunch break is 1.5 hours and the working hours are 6.5 hours (but the design staff often work overtime and receive no overtime pay).
Also, when ordering lunch, someone often keeps dragging it out and delaying everyone’s break time.
Even the most junior employees or those handling purely administrative work have to help pick it up, even if they did not order anything themselves.
The company also often treats employees to meals or small snacks.
The office environment is fairly comfortable.
There is a water dispenser and a snack cabinet.
When a project is completed, bonuses are distributed proportionally.
You can receive a pay stub, but the boss’s wife will sigh while looking for it and will never provide it proactively. After asking several times in a row, you eventually feel like giving up.
The bonuses and gifts given at the three major holidays are very generous.
The various benefits are also quite good.
Labor insurance is still reported at the minimum salary, with various welfare payments added to make up the actual salary.
At first, we agreed that the probationary period would be one month.
But after I had already worked there for half a year, they said that the probationary period was actually three months.
They also said that there would be a raise after passing probation.
Since I did not get a raise, that supposedly meant I had not passed.
A company that uses this kind of excuse to pressure people is honestly quite terrible.
1. Legally, there is no such thing as a probationary period. I agree that it can make things more convenient for the company, but it cannot be used arbitrarily.
2. Extending the probationary period requires the agreement of both the employer and the employee.
3. They could not identify any specific areas in which I had performed poorly.
They only said that I seemed not detail-oriented enough, that I had accidentally worn indoor slippers downstairs once, and that they felt I was not polite enough when speaking, among other things.
Yet their own responses were just “Mm” and “Oh,” while I constantly said “please,” “thank you,” and “sorry.”
Previously, there was a colleague who frequently got into accidents while driving the company car without reporting them to the police. They were only fired after doing so three or four times in a row.
There was also someone who threw desks and chairs on their second day, randomly took the car keys, and then angrily said they did not want to be an administrative design assistant.
Comparing my work ethic with those people is truly insulting.
I also often get caught in the crossfire here.
For example, during meetings I was responsible for closing the door, but even though the meeting had not started yet, the boss came over and angrily said, “Didn’t I just tell you to close the door? Are you ignoring me?”
But they really had not said that, and no one had even entered the office to prepare yet. Still, I could only swallow my frustration and obediently do as instructed.
Or they would say, “Didn’t I just say not to sweep the floor yet? The dust will stick to the silicone we just applied.”
But I had been busy going in and out and genuinely had not heard it. That statement was not even addressed to me personally. There were two pregnant women, one designer who looked physically frail, and the boss and his wife in the office—how could they be expected to move things? So I had no choice but to keep moving things back and forth.
Everyone else in the office also seems to feel powerless. It is not a healthy workplace atmosphere.
1. The boss has a pretty good temper and doesn’t get angry for no reason.
2. The individual workspaces in the office are quite large and very nice, but there are no exterior windows (only the boss’s office has one).
3. My coworkers aren’t very cold, but they can be a little strange at times.
4. There are company vehicles, and they’re easy to borrow.
5. We get an hour and a half for lunch break, which is great.
4. It’s a small company, but it has everything you need, and the people are nice. You can discuss any issues with the boss.
5. The boss is fairly generous with salaries, but since a project may be worked on by everyone together, the bonus is very low—less than 1%.
1. Almost all of the projects are construction projects (factories or self-built properties). There aren’t projects involving new developments, or only basic renovations for government offices. Unless you’re interested in construction, this place isn’t very suitable if you want to do purely renovation work.
2. There is a clock-in system. I don’t know what happens if you’re late; when I asked my coworkers, they wouldn’t say, which I found very puzzling.
3. The overall atmosphere at the company is rather unpolished. Some people cut their nails at work, or pick their ears while discussing work with coworkers, with earwax constantly falling out—the cotton swab ends up covered in it.....
4. Overall, people aren’t proactive enough in their approach to work. The quotation form is also somewhat strange, and when I asked accounting about a formatting issue, the accountant seemed annoyed and let out a deep sigh.
