Business Outlook

Pros

Give competitive salary to those who doesn't have hot-talent but graduated from the top 4 university of Taiwan.

Cons

Poor working efficiency. You'll be asigned to several meetings per day and per week, makes you got no time to do your job at working hours... you'll have to do it overtime. But, you only got 46 hours of overtime per month according to Taiwan's labor law. The company won't approve more than 46 hours of overtime submition.

BAD PUA company

Process engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

In Taiwan, the salary is high for new graduates, but only in Taiwan. Because the overall salary in Taiwan is very low.

Cons

The company will give you two or three times the workload, forcing you to work overtime until 9 PM or more. They'll also constantly use PUA to make you feel like a complete jerk.
