yep, maybe it's good. as i really can't suit their working styles... such crazy rules.... I'm a lenient guy. I don't control over my subordinates in such strict rules. happy staff , happy environment.
it's not that i allow them to be this manner, but provided they don't get over the board with illogical nonsense reason or abuse the chances i've given to them la. Ultimately, i just want you to work properly and getting the job done right.

Going everything by the book is not my working style. U r not robot.

I value a more positive work ethic and vibrant environment. Being micromanaged from each perspective is not healthy. I believe in leveraging each one’s strength to bring out the best effective working modal to benefit the company. But first, we need to acknowledge that everyone is different in their own best way. Then we can build a better team from there.

All above..... tak mau expose la, market small only. i have my principal... i just wanted to rant and also hear more feedback from u all  only jek...

I'm the country sales manager, but i don't have subordinates. I only handle the malaysia distributor sales, and making sure they repeat their order each month.  My whole office only comprise of 4 people. very small group... I'm now on alot of paperwork basis , but it is still a fucking boring job without me having any authority nor chances to go out market visit understanding the trend and info gathering.

No compensation as it is under a 3 months probation.

and another rule forget to explain, NO MC on same day you apply. Gotta inform earlier on any MC otherwise everything else is just tipu MC for him......
Sick come to work 1st and he will observe your condition before granting you any permission for the MC at panel clinic.

China's companies i haven't encounter yet la, mind to share also..???

1) Cannot late a single day.... not 10 mins( even with given notice earlier due to unusual heavy traffic)
2) Cannot yawn and feeling sleepy during work. (tiu, looking at monitor all day squeezing brain not lethargic?? , besides, not that i directly sleep !!)
3) Priority of consent is important, ALWAYS DO GET consent/ approval before doing your things. Even if it is a new year greeting emails to customers.
4) Even in chatroom, there is a case where i go out take things from customer, on the way back office & my car aircon spoil no gas, i just needed 10 mins to stop by workshop to refill gas.. i notify it and take pics send in groupchat, BUT this is an offence... Said why does not consult him 1st to get approval before refill. Not to simply notify and think it is ok.
5) the manners in treating him like a very big boss is similar in Japan.. hierarchy seniority is very important in korean culture. the respect you must show to them is very important. the salute and so on...

“Professional” is delivering work on time and at the expected quality. Not die die show face in the office for the sake of it only.

Well, my stories is about working in a Korean company is totally depressing & stressful.

I tot i found a jewel getting into a korean company, big company... but later on to find out that it is another chapter of horror movie.

At first, everything seems fine, Korean boss seem friendly, slowly to learn up from scratch, office environment is small & clean. Many perks (snacks, coffee machine, supplements, etc) and each lunch makan good good Boss belanja.

But the nightmare is , actually each day you are living a testing trial period. monitor you without saying. I'm a proactive salesperson, that's what i should do as a sales.

On the 1st day of new year work, come back office and received a sudden termination. Saying i'm not suit to his korean culture style working. Fine.....
but when explaining the rather unreasonable answer to me, I'm shocked on how different our working style is...

1) Cannot late a single day.... not 10 mins( even with given notice earlier due to unusual heavy traffic)
2) Cannot yawn and feeling sleepy during work. (tiu, looking at monitor all day squeezing brain not lethargic?? , besides, not that i directly sleep !!)
3) Priority of consent is important, ALWAYS DO GET consent/ approval before doing your things. Even if it is a new year greeting emails to customers.
4) Even in chatroom, there is a case where i go out take things from customer, on the way back office & my car aircon spoil no gas, i just needed 10 mins to stop by workshop to refill gas.. i notify it and take pics send in groupchat, BUT this is an offence... Said why does not consult him 1st to get approval before refill. Not to simply notify and think it is ok.
5) the manners in treating him like a very big boss is similar in Japan.. hierarchy seniority is very important in korean culture. the respect you must show to them is very important. the salute and so on...
6) they don't trust ppl easily, always keep u in the dark... as a sales, but not expecting me go out market visit and expect me can get all info sitting in my chair, funny...

this is simply toooo micromanage. Hire me in such high salary to do clerical job meh? I'm confuse....

you all encounter this kind of funny behaviors Korean company / korean boss culture??  Is it that hard to deal with??

why do you think korewans and japanese people like to work in malaysia?

tbh, thier work culture not for human one.

if you're not the boss you're basically kuli. there is no such thing as cincai. if they ask you to eat shit then you better eat shit.

they always have this stereotypical vendetta towards Chinese because of their country history.

they always have this dumbass mentality in them where they would look down on other Asians

but they always like to glorify white dicks and pussies

Well, thats how it should be. Company pay you for you time, but you steal their time to do your stuff. Kalau dalam islam, kamu tiada konsep amanah. Want to do personal stuff, do it in your personal time. Refill gas after work cant?

People no ask you greet customer, why would you that? Be professional

See kdrama also u want to sabotage boss already lah if you are the strong character type.

Just see a police drama, the big police is a bad guy, the hero is just an inspector. The hero cannot investigate big boss because his pangkat is lower. Feel want to kill both bad guy and hero. Geram.

heng I work for an ang moh company. I really avoid all Asian companies as good as possible since most of them are not relaxed at all (boss, employees etc.), too much stress
