What’s it like working at ASE Electronics?
AI summary of recent reviews
Employees appreciate the 4.5 working day week with Friday afternoons off and flexible working hours that allow for early starts and finishes. The helpful and friendly colleagues create a supportive team environment, and there are good learning opportunities, particularly for fresh graduates, with exposure to various aspects of the semiconductor industry.
However, there are some potential challenges, including work/life balance concerns due to expectations to be available outside office hours, including weekends and evenings. The management style can be demanding with high expectations and pressure to deliver results. The workplace environment is fast-paced and high-pressure, and despite the shorter week, daily working hours often exceed 10 hours. Some employees have noted that resources and manpower can be limited, and mentorship and training for new hires could be enhanced.

Toxic Environment and Poor Management
The good thingsJust a job if you want to pay for your commitments. Very fast hiring process.
The challenges1. Hectic job, management keep pushing high performer until collapse.
2. Toxic and political environment. Only those who play politic well have chance to stay in company or get promotion. Gossips around.
3. Physiological manipulation by management, keep saying treat company as home. Using intimidation if you did not do what they expected.
4. Insults, yelling but ignored by HR company even you report.
5. Profits allocated for company growing instead of treat employees as value asset. High turnover.
