Vantaggi
1. Friendly and Helpful Colleagues: The employees in the department are genuinely kind and supportive. 2. Company Perks and Compensation: The company offers great benefits, such as free purchase points from their head company’s online shop, paid days off on New Year’s Eve, and adorable incentives.
Svantaggi
1. Micromanagement: The manager times your lunch breaks and monitors how long you’re away from your desk. 2. Excessive Meetings: If you’re even 5–10 minutes late, expect a one-on-one meeting to discuss it. 3. Unclear Responsibilities: You’ll be asked to perform tasks that fall outside your job description. 4. Constant Comparisons: The manager frequently praises the predecessor in front of you, which can feel demoralising. 5. Lack of Guidance: They never explain the "ingredients" or provide clear instructions on how to "bake the cake" (i.e., do the job effectively). Yet, they blame you later for not delivering a "high-quality cake" and gaslight you for not figuring out the "baking method" on your own. 6. No Decision-Making Power: As a specialist, you have no authority to make decisions, but you’re always expected to come up with solutions. Unfortunately, those solutions are often dismissed later, leaving you feeling undervalued and frustrated. 7. Financial Pressure: They pressure you to chip in money for unnecessary things, even after you’ve explained that you’re not financially available for such expenses.
