"People born in the 1980s are working overtime and being submissive to their leaders, people born in the 1990s are slacking off and pretending to be busy, and only we, the people born in the 2000s, are cleaning up the workplace. We have arbitrated four companies in one year and sued two of them for bankruptcy." Recently, a post on WeChat Moments sparked heated discussions online, and the poster was even nicknamed "Arbitration Man" by netizens.

In the past two years, litigation disputes between employees and companies have frequently been exposed to the public eye and attracted public attention, such as companies illegally terminating labor contracts and withholding wages.
 
In fact, this phenomenon occurs in all industries. Looking at the cross-border circle, there are all kinds of companies on the market, and it is inevitable that there are many companies with scams mixed in. Recently, a seller avoided a cross-border company on the forum, but was suspected of being banned by the company's leaders.
 

Shenzhen cross-border company is avoided by many sellers, and a former employee of a big seller offers a reward of 30,000 people?




It is learned that recently on the forum, a cross-border company located in South China City has become the target of many sellers’ condemnation. Many sellers revealed that the company’s internal management is chaotic, and some department managers have falsified academic qualifications and bullied subordinates in the workplace.
 

It is reported that not only are some of the company's leaders of questionable character, but the company's management system is also under question. Most departments of the company implement a long and short work week system, and there are no basic benefits, no commissions, and even wages are withheld to force employees to resign, and they refuse to compensate them.
 
A former employee revealed that the company's headquarters is located in Guangzhou. When he was employed, the company had just started in Shenzhen and specialized in recruiting talents from several large companies in South China City. Among them, a well-known Shenzhen sales god was recruited to train employees. Employees need to combine work and training tasks every day. They go back and forth between the company dormitory and the company. They can basically get off work at 11:30 pm, and there is no overtime compensation.
 
As the post about avoiding the pit continued to ferment, a user who claimed to be a former employee of a big seller mentioned in the revelation soon came to the line. The employee is now the operations director of the exposed company. He not only threatened to ban the whistleblower in the cross-border circle, but also offered a reward of 30,000 people to reveal the whistleblower's IP.


The operations director's "suicidal confrontation method" immediately attracted the attacks of many sellers. However, it is doubtful whether he is indeed the real person. As of press time, some netizens said that after verifying with the Shenzhen police and the operations director himself, the user who claimed to be the operations director of the exposed company was suspected of using someone else's name and smearing his reputation.
 
However, whether the revelations in the avoidance post are true or not has not yet been confirmed, so everyone needs to be cautious when eating melons.
 
The explosive growth of the cross-border e-commerce industry in the past two years has stimulated a large number of companies to enter the market. However, there are also many unscrupulous companies hidden among them, and various incidents of exploiting employees have occurred repeatedly.
 
Recently, a seller also revealed in the communication group that the purchase and transportation costs of his company's products need to be borne by the operator. After the successful sale, the profit minus the cost will be given a 2% commission, and 300 yuan of store rent and 150 yuan of EPR fees will be deducted every month. This is equivalent to sharing the costs and risks with employees.

There are countless similar cases. Some sellers bluntly stated that in the Amazon industry, employee satisfaction is nothing more than three things: performance, no overtime, and salary.
 
However, the industry has been in turmoil over the past year, and the market seems to have returned to its peak. While Amazon employees have increasingly heavy workloads, their salaries are difficult to guarantee adequately, which has led to frequent chaos such as withholding of wages and commissions, and exploitation of employees.
 

Is it the current situation in the industry that no commission is available? Sellers want to switch to service providers!




A seller said that he had worked in his last company for nearly two years, but his total commission did not exceed 10,000. This year, he changed to a new company with a relatively high base salary, thinking that he had found a treasure trove of small and fine companies. However, after operating for a period of time, he found that the products all had major pain points, and it seemed that getting commissions was a long way off: Is it normal for not to get commissions in the current Amazon market?
 
"I haven't received any commission for half a year, and my performance pay has been deducted from my base salary. The performance appraisal standards are also frequently changed."

"The annual salary is full yearly, and I can't get any commission at all. The company charges 5% of the gross profit for management fees, and 1,379 is deducted from the gross profit for art fees. The return costs are also ours."

"My company's commission system is that I can only get commission if the monthly store profit is greater than my comprehensive salary, and the company's rent and water and electricity bills are also deducted. I can't laugh anymore."
 
It can be seen that many sellers are currently facing the situation of no commission or even having their base salary deducted. The commission system of some cross-border companies lacks reasonable establishment standards. Sellers are under pressure from sales targets and even have to bear various operating costs. After deducting various expenses, the commission is basically very little.
 
The basic salary + commission together constitute the overall salary of Amazon operations, but there are pitfalls everywhere. For example, there is a basic salary, part of the basic salary is taken as performance salary, and various deductions are set in the commission, making sellers bear unnecessary costs.
 
For this reason, a seller said bluntly: I can’t work on Amazon anymore. It’s too tiring and I can’t make any money. I haven’t received any commission this year. I want to switch to being a service provider.

Indeed, last year, there was a huge wave of account blocking, and various policies followed one after another. This year, there has been a decrease in demand and traffic, and there have been continuous negative news such as layoffs and salary cuts. Compared with the peak of "digging for gold everywhere", many cross-border people are now experiencing a decline in performance and salaries, resulting in a continuous decline in the confidence index, and more and more people are thinking about changing careers or starting side jobs.
 
However, whether it is changing careers or doing a side job, it is not without difficulties. What do you think about this? Feel free to leave a message in the comment area~
