I have an old colleague who resigned ten years ago and went to an Italian-owned company. He was almost forty years old at the time. When I went there, I was just an ordinary technician. After ten years of hard work, I am now the director of an American-owned company. There is also a colleague who also resigned and went to a foreign company after he was in his forties. He is just an ordinary engineer. Based on their age, they do not meet the recruitment requirements of many domestic enterprises.

Many job seekers have the same feeling. Foreign-funded companies do not pay much attention to age. According to my colleagues, there are several ordinary engineers in their company who are in their 40s and 50s. This is related to the culture of foreign companies and domestic companies. Many senior executives of foreign companies are posted at the headquarters, and their management ideas are different from traditional Chinese management ideas. They pursue pragmatism. When recruiting people, they consider more whether the job seeker has work experience and whether it matches the company's job requirements. Others are less considered. There is another reason why foreign companies do not have age discrimination, which is inseparable from their social culture and awareness of equality.

But domestic companies are different. Most of them have age restrictions when recruiting. Especially for some production and service positions, many require people under 45 years old. Sometimes we have to admit that this is age discrimination. Just like China's flight attendants are generally young and beautiful women, they all live in youth and have to leave front-line flight attendant positions after they reach their thirties. And many countries not only have air hostesses, but also air aunties.

Domestic companies are willing to recruit young people because of two considerations. First, young people’s wages are low. In many technical positions, the salary difference between a young person and a senior engineer can be several times higher. Second, young people are energetic and efficient at work. After many people reach the age of forty, their reactions begin to slow down and their memory begins to fade. In some manual labor positions, their work efficiency is definitely not as good as that of young people with sharp eyesight and quick hands. Enterprises are profit-seeking, so they are unwilling to recruit older employees.

I used to be a foreign company, one of the top 500 companies. She is very humane and as simple as a university. The relationship between colleagues is very harmonious and the leadership is very good. Although we are no longer in the same place, we have maintained a good relationship until now. Now we are like friends and sisters. We even said that I would send her mail Where's the sausage?

Promote equality, everyone sits in the same position, and if there is no leader, there will be a separate office. The biggest head, if you touch it, you just smile and say hello, hi xx and that's it. The other party will also respond with a warm smile.

Regularly engage in team building. We have our own dance studio where we can practice yoga, aerobics, dance, etc. There are table tennis tables, games, and table football.

Annual leave starts at 15 days, increases by one day each year, and reaches a maximum of 20 days. After five years, an additional 30 days of annual leave will be added, which is equivalent to 50 working days of annual leave. Maternity leave seems to be 96 working days, and marriage leave is 10 days. Colleagues in my circle of friends all share their travel abroad. Everyone is happy and relaxed, with smiles on their faces.

Those who are pregnant or raising children can generally arrive at the company later and leave earlier.

But at that time, working every day was too comfortable and I didn’t work overtime. I had to find something to do for myself. The work is very repetitive every day, which is really stressful for a young man who wants to work hard. I just changed jobs. There is no harm if there is no comparison. Private companies are very popular now. There is no corporate culture, few people are dedicated to their work, they pass the blame to each other, procrastinate, and often work overtime. . . . . I don’t want to struggle anymore. . . . . .

Well, 4 months after I changed jobs, that company later laid off our department and lost n+4 wages. We didn’t make any fuss. If there were more fuss, there might be more. In Shenzhen, there were layoffs, but there was a fuss. Lost n+6. There was another who was newly pregnant and lost two years of her income.

I'll just hold on for a few more months and it'll be fine
