Pros

never join this company. Just nice office.

Cons

The management consists of a married couple, with the wife being a full scholarship student turned boss lady. Despite her extensive academic background, she lacks managerial acumen and leadership skills, showing disdain and disrespect towards employees. The boss frequently emerges from his office shouting profanities, using foul language in public areas to berate staff. Any deviation in attire from the boss's preferences results in immediate termination by the HR department. Employees can only answer with "yes" or "no" and are not allowed to respond with "ok." Any mistake is met with harsh rebuke. Staff are coerced into undergoing two days of unpaid training before starting to save on training costs. Executives are pressured to sign contracts where they must personally compensate the company for project failures. The boss criticizes work performance for minor errors like punctuation mistakes. The overall atmosphere in the company is toxic, suffocating employees and leading to a very high turnover rate, with many employees lasting less than a year before sudden termination, often due to zodiac signs or facial features not aligning with the boss's preferences. Employees are expected to complete tasks within an hour, forbidden from taking lunch breaks, and face termination if deadlines are exceeded. The company deducts salaries or demotes employees if it is not profitable, forcing staff to resign on their own so the company avoids paying compensation. Employees are coerced into signing contracts for a two-year probation period.

Pros

Relatively nice office. A bridge away from subway. People come and go so quickly so that tasks needed to be picked up in haste with very steep learning curve.

Cons

All previous reviews on Glassdoor are true. With emphasis on belows: 1) Failing business - negative growth and downsizing a lot of departments, such legal, branding, corp com, real estate. HR remains strong only to execute those exits (no value-added). IT also over-staffed without reasons. It has no system infra except website JM9. 2) Toxic culture and no respect to employees - root of high turnovers and terminations within probation periods. 3) Heavy criticism and harsh tones in daily communication from boss - intolerable for any normal working staffers. 4) Always on hiring streaks - due to no talents and low budget. Most ads are fake. Even at final rounds HR are ordered to deduct expected salary by 30%. Or withhold 50% as performance based salary. Unwelcome in general HK job market. 5) No base salary increment for 3 years - not even bonus pool - rendering all monthly, quarterly, annual self evaluation reports meaningless. No response from boss anyways (but must submit to HR).

Pros

Couldn't think of any except business is going very slow therefore all need to do is paper-pushing, report making-up and pleasing two bosses during zooms.

Cons

1) Very high turnover, less than half new joiners stay for over 3 months, most have been terminated by company. 2) Two bosses enjoys giving direct orders without questions. They prefer not to listen to any opinion or feedback from frontline staffers. Nagging and severe criticism often linger in the narrow corridors of the office. 3) Minor deduction of wages are often used as leverages to penalize low performance.
