Great salary, but no life
Great salary, but no life
Have a great salary in TAIWAN.
Long working hours. Need to be on-call. Almost focusing on making PPT and presentations. (At least 50% of work time as a junior (job level 31)) (The percentage will rise with your job level growth. Some mid-level engineers (job level 32) have 100% of work time on it. All seniors (job level 33) have 100% work time on it, even needing overtime.) No credit for maintaining systems well. You could receive the worst performance evaluation result even if you take barely all of the non-presentation (or PPT making) time maintaining the systems and resolve all the problems within a couple of hours. Does not have time to develop.
Learn how to make PPTs and presentations that your boss likes, including font size and color.
Learn how to delegate non-valuable work to others.
Learn how to leverage valuable work from others and showcase its value in presentations.
