1) No trust, No respect from management. cold-blood management. no company/ team bonding events/activities but only WORKWORKWORK.
2) One-(old)man show. One person approves everything and he is the one who evaluates your performance, even though your immediate superior is someone else.
3) 30 y/o company but still calling themselves a startup company, yes, they are proud of it.
4) They claim that they are open-minded. But no way they would accept your suggestions/ideas. They focus much more on being understood than on understanding others.
5) Even if you are a Christian, you will be addressed by Chinese name. Is a MUST. Reason? To not forget you are Chinese, where you come from blah blah blah. He is a big fan of China. However, still require you to speak English because he doesn't know Chinese lol
6) You have to deposit your phone and ONLY can retrieve it when going back. Not even during lunchtime. Reason? To prevent confidential information leakage. Hello? if you don't trust your staff then just hire your family members to work with you. You know there are a lot of times when someone called me for urgent and I didn't pick up???? lol
7) They may ask you to leave immediately without prior notice. they will “ask” you to prepare your resignation letter, so they don’t need to pay you severance compensation. Once you have agreed, you can't fight back your right anymore.
8) Working environment is awfully quiet. Even you could hear a needle dropped on the floor.
9) Work on Saturday sometimes seems not necessary.
10) If someone told you here don’t encourage OT, don't believe, it is just a joke, bro.
11) 6 months or more probation period. all the best
12) short & medium term-investment is prohibited.
13) Once you have tendered the resignation letter, you are nothing here. They may treat you like..AIR
14) Pantry like storeroom
15) x respect your personal life. Sometimes may require you to stay back for work/meeting after working hour on Saturday. They would still "insist" you stay even if you have told them you have a date/appointment later.
16) zero to less benefit here. good luck & all the best
17) can refer to other reviews here. all are true.
