Pros

This company is based out of Tawain, they have no knowledge of American Business practices and they expect you to work to death and get paid once a month no benefits because they don’t have them set up in the USA yet, and they only want Manadrin Speaking Young Workers as I was forced to discriminate against older applicants. Don’t work here you’ll lose all self respect and they’ll make you break every law they possibly can to achieve their goal. Btw, you get paid once a month.

Cons

No benefits, paid once a month, they’ll discriminate against your age, if you can speak Manadrain, They expect you to be a company person who works 12 hours a day, you can’t leave the factory for lunch, you can’t leave the property for anytime during work hours. Their expectations are not achievable. They say you get bonuses. No you don’t. They speak mandarin only about you to your face. This place is horrible and they are breaking every law to get away with being able to produce their products. They’ve lost their only 2 American staff so now it’s all people from China and Tawain there. No Diversity, no inclusion.

Pros

Good initial experience dealing with clients in the nutraceutical industry. That is literally about it.

Cons

No healthcare benefits of any type. Stated in the offer letter that after the initial first 3 month trial/training period that it would kick in. Never did. Extreme poor management. Little to no training of any type. When you ask questions on tasks you've never done before instead of providing you with the necessary instructions or feedback the management will talk down to you and belittle you. You are expected to be online at anytime. I have taken meetings or gotten on calls at 10pm or 11pm at night. When you don't answer they will again scold you the next day even tho it was almost mid night. I read one of the previous review regarding how if you are of Asian descent you get treated much more poorly, and I couldn't have agreed more. A lot of internal department issues, extremely understaffed in certain departments. When I need a task done by my project manager it felt like I had to jump through multiple hoops just to get a simple tasks submitted.

Pros

Opportunity to travel, everything else will seem easy after this

Cons

What can I say other than this is by far the most toxic work environment I have ever been exposed to. They bring the meaning of micromanagement and hostile work environment to a whole new level. They will make all kinds of promises about a bright future with the company, only to start treating everyone like garbage as soon as they get them signed on. They spend every morning and afternoon publicly bashing on employees job performance, making a mess of accounts and expecting sales to clean up the mess and take the fall. You can forget about the promises of commissions, that is a lie. They won’t even provide a clear commission structure so there’s nothing to reference when the time comes. They staff sexual predators that rack up numerous complaints but they refuse to take corrective action and do not allow the US HR team to do anything about it. Their employee turn over rate is probably similar to that of a badly run call center. They don’t value their good employees so they can’t keep anyone around. They’re racist, sexist, ageist and abusive. It’s not uncommon to see employees leaving a meeting with upper management in tears. They show no compassion and will prey on the weak. Their goal is to be the largest international company in their trade but they refuse to adapt to Western culture. They do not respect personal boundaries or a home/work life balance. If you choose to join the company, be prepared to be led by intimidation and fear and to be in an environment where management yelling profanities is an everyday occurrence. If you choose to work here, plan on accounting for every moment of your time that you’re on the clock and make sure that you answer any incoming calls and messages, even if it’s in the middle of the night or on a weekend or holiday. Otherwise, it will be used against you. Also, making friends with your coworkers is highly discouraged. You are there to work. Period. This company has a horrible reputation amongst their clients and former clients. This is usually not the fault of the sales/account managers personally but the company as a whole. It’s dysfunctional, everyone is over worked and burned out. They continue to bring on more sales people but do not have enough staff to support them. Everyone is doing the jobs of several people, working overtime and not being given appropriate resources and nothing is appreciated. The US HR team tries to advocate for the staff and inform the company of US standards, cultures and laws but upper management is very set in their ways and do not appreciate or accept any type of feedback that goes against their way of thinking. Even with all of that being said, it only scratches the surface of how toxic this place really is.
