Today I want to complain about the most deceptive cross-border e-commerce company I have ever encountered - XX Co., Ltd., referred to as XX by industry insiders. How is this company deceptive? There are the following points:
1. They specifically pit fresh graduates. Because fresh graduates have little experience in e-commerce, they have a legitimate reason to offer you a very low base salary (4-5k) in Shenzhen, saying that the company has great growth opportunities. However, when recruiting, they will not tell you that you can be converted to a regular employee after the three-month probation period. Instead, after the three-month probation period, most people will be told that if your sales volume does not meet the target, you will be required to sign a guarantee letter to extend your conversion, which will delay your conversion. However, this practice is against the labor law. Fresh graduates have two main demands: salary and better growth opportunities, but they cannot even provide this. First of all, the leaders are generally not from the business background, and basically do not understand the business, and cannot teach you by example; on the contrary, they will give you many unrealistic goals, and ask you to work overtime for the company for free, and they also call it the general situation in the industry. Secondly, the company has no courage and enterprising spirit in business, and the profit control for each order is extremely strict. Advertising recharge must be approved by leaders at all levels, and there is no fixed budget. Therefore, even if an individual is extremely capable and has very good ideas, it is extremely difficult to grow if your investment is strictly controlled in the early stage. Those who have some ability in this company will leave the company in the end. The employment period of fresh graduates in this company is about 6 months. After 6 months, basically a group of people will leave. 2. The company's top leaders and middle and senior management are basically not from the business field, and their own abilities are limited. They cannot give you much guidance in business. What they are good at every day is to look at the order financial statements and calculate the profit and loss. The people who do things are mainly the operations below. Their average salary does not exceed 7,000, and the commission is basically random. However, in order to show their presence, the leaders will set many goals for you, such as the daily number of shelves, new product promotion goals, gross profit margin control indicators, and new product development goals. . . Product development, yes, every operation has a rigid product development responsibility. If the product development goals are not completed that week, it will directly affect your salary performance at the end of the month. So here, even if you are operating a store, you are also a product developer, and one person has multiple roles. You may ask, doesn't the company have product development? Where has the product development of this company gone? They have all been optimized by the company using various methods, and they were optimized without spending a penny. 3. The company advocates overtime culture, and they wish you would work 996 every day. Although it is said that you get off work from 9 to 6, the newbies who leave on time at 6 o'clock will be called out by the leaders for being irresponsible and asking why they left so soon. In addition, most of the colleagues in the company are too conscious to stay and work overtime, which makes people who leave at 6 o'clock the odd ones out. I personally hate this kind of company culture. 4. The company is too stingy, the salary and benefits are too poor, there is no year-end bonus + 13th salary, and many benefits promised before joining the company cannot be fulfilled after joining. In 2020, when the company's sales on major platforms increased significantly, employees did not receive bonuses at the end of the year, performance and year-end bonuses, and only some people received the Double Eleven + Black Friday bonuses, while most people could only stare blankly, which was extremely insulting. 5. The company's Lazada, Shopee and daraz platforms are a huge pit, with extremely low gross profit margins and extremely high product return rates. Under the distribution model, the company's internally shared supply chain, warehousing fees and procurement fees are extremely high. Just sharing can eat up your gross profit, and even mid-level and senior operations will find it difficult to get commissions. It is strongly recommended that you do not come here to do these three platforms! ! ! In addition, the company's eBay and wish are in a state of suspension, with no growth at all. Latin American e-commerce Mercado has good profits but mainly fights price wars and distributes goods. The prospects are unknown and there is limited learning. In short, companies that distribute goods, don't come! ! ! The company is currently seeking transformation, but if you want to transform, you can't just say you can transform.
