20 companies will never tell you the secret

20 companies will never tell you the secret

1. The salary level at the time of entry is not important. As long as you work hard, you will get the corresponding treatment.
I estimate that almost everyone who has been looking for a job has heard this sentence. When we are determined to be hired to talk to the company about salary, they will say, "If you have outstanding performance and hard work in the future, your salary will increase accordingly." Most people will believe these words when they first look for a job, but don't believe it.
When you first join the job, your salary is yours, and most of your treatment will follow your salary after you join the job. The salary adjustment is also based on your current salary multiplied by a certain percentage. Insurance and provident fund are also related to wages. When your basic salary is low, your future salary growth will not be large.
Therefore, don't be soft when looking for a job, and get some basic salary, because this is yours.
When I first looked for a job, I made this mistake. At that time, I didn’t ask for a higher salary. I didn’t care if the basic salary was a few hundred dollars lower than others, but I later found out that it has a leverage, even though you will pay each year. The increase is bigger than others, but the salary is still lower than others.
For example, when you enter the job, the basic salary is 4000, the next year's salary is 20%, then the second year salary is 4800; if your colleague is employed, the basic salary is 4500, the next year's increase is 10%, then his second year The salary is 4950.
Do you see the gap? Please remember that the salary at the time of entry is yours and must not be soft.
2. The personnel department is not your target.
I have seen many employees in the company looking for a HR manager, and the HR staff may regularly talk to employees and ask employees if they have any problems at work. Is there anything that the personnel department needs to help employees solve?
But please remember that the company's personnel department is not your target. The first task of the personnel department is not to help employees, but to protect the company's interests from employees. This is the most important. Many people think that the personnel department is their own friend, and sometimes even the real attitude to the company and the boss will be told to the personnel department.
Regardless of how friendly the personnel of the personnel department are, you must recognize what you are talking to and they will share this information with the decision-making department, such as your boss, manager, supervisor and CEO. The role of the personnel department is to inform the company's decision-making department about your so-called "secrets."
For example, if you don't like your current job content or the relationship with the boss is not good, you must not complain to the personnel department. You should communicate directly with your boss. It may be that the personnel of the personnel department at the time of the conversation will give sympathy and say that they reflect this situation to their superiors, but in most cases the personnel department will convey your dialogue with them to your boss intact, and your boss This is absolutely unforgivable. If you have problems, you should not go to the boss to solve them. Instead, you will find the personnel department directly, so that your situation is very passive and you may be forced to leave the company.
3. Your ability does not guarantee your safety.
Many companies say that our company pays attention to the ability of employees and encourages employees to exert their own initiative. For newly-employed employees, there may be a kind of mentality, that is, to show your talents and demonstrate your abilities to colleagues or leaders, but please note: the company or your leader hopes to see your loyalty first, not the show own ability. No matter what your purpose is, this is not important. If you always show your ability, it is very likely that the boss thinks that you are selling smart, is not trustworthy, or he will feel the threat if he thinks you are threatening His position, he does not care how smart you are, he would rather have a stupid but loyal person.
Therefore, when you have just started or just transferred to a new department, you must not be smart at first. The first thing you need to do is to be familiar with the environment and familiarize yourself with the character of your boss. Even if you are an expert, you must first put a low profile. It is also the key moment that also needs to show your ability to let others feel that you are hidden.
There is a saying in South Korea that "If you want to make your marriage happy, you have to be a blind man for 3 years, a dumb for 3 years, and a blind person for 3 years." Because the mother-in-law in Korea used to be abusive to the wife, you must be pretending to be dumb. I said that the purpose of this is newcomers. You should learn to be dumb, just start listening, learning more, and listening to gossip.
4. The reimbursement form is a tool for the company to test you.
You may wonder if you see this topic? Can an expense claim also test employees? Yes, our usual reimbursement is also a tool for companies or leaders to test you.
Most companies will have reimbursement at the end of the month or travel reimbursement?
Did you ask your leader to sign your reimbursement form, did he say anything? Or did he have any expressions? Please note that in most cases the leaders will see the amount of your reimbursement, and if they wish, the finance department can provide everyone with reimbursement details at any time.
I have seen some people who are cheap and cheap in the company. There are always some private expenses for meals and transportation expenses. Maybe these costs are only 100 yuan, but it is these small money that will break your future.
A boss I know told me this sentence: "A certain employee reported the business meal one day, but that day it was my payment." Perhaps this employee is too big.
But there are some of the bosses I know. He even checks the time on the ticket you played, and then records the monthly expenses of each employee. Maybe he might not say anything when you reimbursed, but It’s not just money that you lose when you get there.
5. It is dangerous to disclose personal matters in the workplace.
Most of us now have too much time with our colleagues. The time we spend with our colleagues sometimes exceeds the time spent with our family. This situation makes us sometimes unable to distinguish between business and private affairs. Sometimes we feel that Colleagues' relationships are like family members, sharing their personal affairs with their colleagues, child raising problems, personal health problems, and some economic difficulties, but remember that the workplace is the workplace, and it is dangerous for you to do so.
A colleague of mine often said at work that his son is now adolescent, telling us how to rebel. Because of his son’s rebellion, the atmosphere of the family is very tight after going home every day. It is possible that he wants to reduce his family’s The pressure, but recently the company started a major project, he always thought that he was the best candidate responsible for the project, but the results were surprising, the company leadership selected other candidates, why? Because the company’s leadership feels that “there are enough things in his family, it is estimated that he has no spare time to do such an important project” or to be more calm. “You can’t solve things in your own home, you can still be responsible for such important things. Project?"
If you don't have a good body, you don't need to tell your colleagues about your health. Because you are unhealthy for your boss, you can't invest 100% or it may affect your work, so your boss will be upset. He even thinks ahead. Countermeasure or extra recruiting, so that even if your body recovers, you may face the embarrassing situation of losing your position.
6. If you are against the boss, you will inevitably be expelled from the company's door.
There is a person in the company who has a great influence on you. Without his support, you can't get the company's approval. It is difficult or even possible to lose your job if you are promoted. He is your top boss.
Maybe your boss is not smart, you can't do it, you may not be convinced of him, but remember that he is like a gatekeeper, you want to circumvent the goalkeeper, but the end result is that you also lost An opportunity door open to you. Maybe you feel that if you are capable enough, the company leadership will let you bypass your boss and let you promote or give you another chance, but don't daydream, the company will always stand in the perspective of your boss. The stability of an organization, 99% of the injuries with your boss are your own.
Maybe your boss's ability is not as strong as you, but since he can rise to that position, he must have some other abilities, leadership or organizational management ability or loyalty to the company. When the boss and you are in conflict, the company will stand. On your boss's side, please remember this.
One of my colleagues is very capable. When he transferred to a new department, he found that the boss had no ability and could not make a decision. In many cases, he bypassed his boss and communicated directly with the general manager. He also recognized him, which made him very proud of his ability to force his boss can not take him, but once, the boss said that he worked too hard, let him go to Maldives to take a vacation, when he came back from Maldives, he found When he was not there, the company issued a personnel order and transferred him to an insignificant department.
So, no matter what kind of boss you are in, if you want to stay in this department, stay in this company, you need to cooperate with your boss, so that he will open the door for you.
7. Press the Transfer button? STOP~~ Company mail is very dangerous.
If I said that the mail you sent and received in the company mailbox was seen by your boss, do you think that the sky is going to collapse? If not, it means that you are very bright. In fact, many people don't know that the company or the boss can see your email, and the company will never give employees a warning, saying that you should pay attention to each other's E-mail, if you use the company mailbox to send a private email to a friend, or If you talk to your colleagues about your boss's or company's policies, be sure to look at them with a big eye: the company mailbox is dangerous.
When you use the company mailbox to send and receive mail, you must think about the possibility that someone in the company is watching this email, because some companies will check the content of the email regularly. I don't know if the company I worked for is also the same, but I have heard that some internationally renowned companies regularly check employees' emails.
The email will stay on the company server forever: You may not know, even if some emails are sent out, you regret it and delete it immediately. It may not be in your mailbox. The company server will record this email forever.
Be sure to think twice when you press the Transfer button: You may give some advice to the Personnel Department or your supervisor via email or make some comments on the company system. Be sure to note that these emails will become evidence in some important moments, in many cases. It is often bad for you.
In the company, I often receive some funny emails. If you have sent these emails to colleagues, I suggest you not send them again in the future. Because you often send these things to make others think that you have nothing to do all day, so send this mail. Perhaps he received the mail and forwarded the mail to some leaders. Perhaps he also wants to make the leader funny and happy, but the leaders will not think so, you will become a person who has nothing to do in the eyes of the leader.
8. Will my hard work company give me a raise? No, you must ask!
For wages, companies and employees can never achieve a win-win situation, and many people are not satisfied with their current salary. So what should I do? Waiting for the company to give you a raise? Many people think that if I do my own thing, I will make a profit, the company will definitely give me a raise, yes, the company will give you a raise, but ~ ~ salary increase certainly can not meet your expectations.
I have seen many cases in the company. Many people are imagining that "the time will come" the company will give me a raise, or I am afraid that I will not ask if the boss has any idea after the request, but if you dare not raise a salary, the company gives You may be an average or a salary slightly above the average, it is not what you expect.
Of course, you want to ask for a raise. First of all, you have to figure out your "value", and you must think from the perspective of the company. If the company thinks that you do not have the "value of salary increase", you are likely to be Cut off.
Prove your "value": If you do nothing in the company all day, then the company will not give you a raise, you must prove your "value" before you ask, so that you become an indispensable talent.
Request: As mentioned above, the company thinks about how to cut costs every day. If you don't ask the company to think that this is a good thing, unless you ask for it, the company will never voluntarily give you a lot of salary. Don't think that there will be a miracle any day. If you think you have value, ask for it. If the boss approves you, he will listen to your words, and you must not let your boss become your enemy. The last thing you must communicate is. Emphasize that I still respect your decision, because sometimes the boss has a time to be unable to do it for objective reasons.
Don't threaten your boss: If you still want to stay in the company, don't threaten your boss when you ask for a raise, such as leaving the company without paying a salary or lying with your boss, saying that you have taken another company's OFFER, etc. Your position must be "I really like this company and the current business, but I feel that there is a gap between the current salary and the work I actually do. I hope that the salary can reflect my value", etc., the result of your threat is likely to be packaged. people.
Don't complain: Even if the final result is not very good, such as not giving you a raise or adding a small part, you may understand your shortcomings or the boss's opinion on you by taking the initiative, and let the boss understand that you are not satisfied. status quo. If you are not planning to leave the company, you should start to make up for your shortcomings or improve your performance. Next time, use stronger facts to prove that this may not be successful, but you are not far from the next success.
I know it's hard to ask for a raise with the boss, because you are afraid "If I ask for a salary, the boss will fire me or he will not give me a good face later?", but in most cases the ones you imagined the most The bad situation did not happen, most of them are happyending. And even if there are some side effects, the company or the boss is very forgetful, because if the company's OWNER is not your boss, the money is not coming out of his pocket, he will forget about it in a month or two.
I can tell you this very sure, because I have tried it.
9. The salary increase must be requested, then the promotion? NO, you must manage your mouth.
Since the salary increase must be required, then promotion? This must not be required. Once you apply for or ask for a promotion opportunity, it will miss you. Promotion is not a requirement, but the boss gives you after careful consideration.
The boss is not sure that you can ask before you can become a manager. It is like you are not coming in from the door, but you have to jump over the wall and go inside. Because if the boss is not sure that you are a leader, but you come up first, he will feel that you are not mature or that you are more concerned about your own interests than the interests of the company.
In addition to performance and work abilities, the leaders will examine many other abilities, such as leadership, organizational skills, loyalty to the company, etc., as well as managers should be able to hold their breath and be modest. Time needs to be modest, and if you propose it in advance, it will destroy your image.
Do you have to wait? Of course not, you can take the initiative to take charge of some important projects, and ask for difficult projects that other departments face. Be sure to seize the opportunity to let your boss see your ability and see your enthusiasm.
10. If you encounter a new boss, you should actively cooperate with him.
Today's companies often have personnel changes. In general, employees who are new to the boss will have a feeling of being invaded by others, especially when you have a very good relationship with your former boss. But if you want to continue to mix in the company, you should cooperate with the new boss as soon as possible, familiar with his work style.
Many times, after the new boss takes office, the subordinate employees expect the new boss to adapt to the original working style of the department, but this kind of thing will not happen. Most new bosses will change the current working style. When you touch or give advice, the so-called new official takes up three fires. At this time, what you have to do is to actively cooperate with him. If other employees have dissatisfaction, you should have a middle turn so that the new boss will think that you are standing. On his side, this first impression is especially important. At the same time, when the new boss just came, you feel that the new boss still does not understand the situation of the department, so I will give him some advice or suggestions. Even if you are good for the new boss, don't give advice or advice. This is a taboo. If he asks you on your own initiative, you can say, but ~~ try to tell the truth at this time, don't touch your personal opinions or negative information, you have to let your boss make decisions based on these facts. Moreover, the new boss asks your opinion or suggestion, is to test your loyalty, want to know your true thoughts about the company or colleagues, this is likely to be a trap.
What you have to remember here is that when the new boss comes to be familiar with the business, it is a good opportunity for you to express yourself. Remember, say less, silently cooperate with the work of the new boss, he will put these things Keep it in mind.
11. Want to be the most valuable employee in the company? Then you must stop saying "I can't do it" and take the initiative.
Does everyone want to be the company's MVP? Then you have to stop saying "I can't do it" and take the initiative to ask you, every time your boss assigns a task to you, do you say "I haven't done this, I can't do this" or "I don't have time now."
Even if you think this task is a bit difficult for you, you think that you may not be able to complete it. At this time, many people may conditionedly say "I can't do this." Don't say this. In fact, the leader assigns you This task, he must have considered your ability, and maybe this thing has a back road even if he doesn't do it well. This time, even if you don't finish well enough, you may not lose anything. At this time, your attitude should be "This is a bit difficult for me to do, but I will try it." Then I have to work overtime or give you all the strength to solve the problem. If you find that you can't finish it according to your current ability, you must Submit it to the leader before the deadline, giving him more time to modify.
If you habitually say "I can't do it", after a while he will feel "you can't do it for you," so you don't assign tasks to you.
If there are projects or tasks in your department that everyone does not want to do, if you take the initiative to receive this "hot potato", then the leader will be very impressive, and you will not be too much. As long as one can.
12. Want to stand out? Let the leadership feel 150% satisfied.
A secret to success in the workplace, don't just do what the leader is doing for you. If you only perform 100% according to the leadership, then you will never be able to stand out. When the company is doing the tasks assigned to you by the leadership, you must have a long-term focus. In addition to the tasks he has assigned, you can make your suggestions or suggestions for improvement, and the completion degree cannot be 100%, but to achieve 150%.
A very important strategy in the strategy used by Hillary in "Being a woman like Hillary" is: "Let the person who hires me or the person who receives the service I feel feels 200% satisfied", so look at Hillary The goal is higher.
Many people think that you only need to do the task of leadership assignment so that your leader can meet 100%, and you can do your own thing, but if you do, you can never mix well in the workplace.
13. Does your company allow freedom of speech? There is no freedom of speech in the workplace.
Maybe when you go to work on the first day, the personnel of the personnel department will be very OPEN to you, and when you are in a lot of meetings, the general manager will say, "Everyone will speak freely. I will try my best to meet your requirements and try to solve your problems. "Do not fall into this trap." Most of the time, the company has no freedom of speech, especially when you have a real idea about the company's policies, environment or system, and publicly oppose the company's policy system. The company will regard you as a reactionary who influences the company's atmosphere. They think that you are very dangerous, so there are some ways to get you out of the package.
I don't know if some really open companies have freedom of speech, but the version I see is that whenever the general manager interviews employees, they will let them talk freely, but when they really say the real idea, he immediately loses. The trust of the company.
Another point, I often see some people talking to colleagues or friends in the elevator about the company, this is a very unprofessional behavior, because whether you are in your office elevator or in the customer company elevator, with you The person taking the elevator may be a friend of your boss, an important customer, you praise the company, but the words of opposition or dissatisfaction should not be said in the elevator, otherwise you will not know why you died so fast.
14. Is your desk professional?
Now most of the foreign companies' desks are small grids. Maybe you think that the desk is my private place. I want to put whatever I put, but please note that the desk is also a place to reflect your value, so Make your desk professional too.
What kind of desk is professional?
Can't be too messy, I saw a lot of people's desks in the company are messy, all kinds of files are placed there, too chaotic, it is easy to give others an unorganized impression of this person's work.
Don't be too clean, if anything is too clean on your desk, then others will think that you have nothing to do.
Can't have too many decorations. Nowadays, after 80s, I pursue individuality. There are all kinds of things on my desk. One of my colleagues’ desks can be regarded as a gift shop. There are various kinds of dolls and various small things. Maybe I feel like this. Very creative, but others are talking about her behind the scenes.
Books that are not related to the business or that do not match your tone should never be placed in a place where people can see it.
In general, I feel that you can put your files or materials on the table during the day, but you must organize them when you get off work. The important information must be placed in the drawer, which shows that you are very professional. And in real life, some bosses are used to taking a turn to look at the subordinate's desk after work. First, see if there are any important information about the company on your desk. Second, look at your nearest thing through the things on your desk. trend
15. The results of the performance appraisal are not consistent with your performance? Performance also needs to be promoted.
Most companies conduct performance evaluations one or two times a year. The results of performance evaluation will affect your bonuses/promotions, but many employees find that the performance evaluation results are completely different from what they imagine. Why? Because your subjective judgment in performance appraisal is not important at all, what matters is how your boss judges your performance. If you do work with data, like sales, it may be better, but many of the work we do may not have specific data to support, so you usually have to promote your own performance.
I have seen many people usually don't communicate with their bosses very much, but when they are dissatisfied with the results at the end of the year, they will find their bosses dissatisfied. This kind of practice can't change anything. What you need to do is to communicate regularly with your boss: It is very important for the boss to communicate regularly, because through this communication you can let the boss know what you are doing, and you can also understand what the boss thinks and what to expect from you. Doing things according to your own standards is untenable in the company. If you want to get a good performance evaluation, you must meet the expectations and standards of your boss.
Advocate your own performance: You will definitely ask how to promote this? Are the bosses not watching? But many times you do some things that the boss doesn't really know. No matter how hard you work, if the boss doesn't know it, it's useless. So when necessary, you must give some work progress to the boss, or I usually take it. Regularly list the work that you are doing, and describe the situation to the boss in detail. The boss can refer to these written things when performing performance appraisal.
Even if the boss gives you a bad evaluation, you can't reveal your dissatisfaction. Because the boss must have his reasons for doing this, and he has the power to give you a bad evaluation. What you need to do is let the boss say his opinion. You have to correct it according to the opinion of the boss. Because you have the obligation to cater to the boss's working style and work style. Who makes him your boss?
16. Are you a "good guy" in the company? If you blindly please others, you will lose the respect of others.
Every company has good people, they smile at everyone, and they don’t say "NO" for everyone. If you are a new employee of the company, you may just want to get the trust of other colleagues, you need to please others, of course, this is needed, but please do not confuse "modesty, correct attitude" and "do not have your own opinion." people". If you blindly please others without your own opinions, you will lose the respect that others have for you. At work, others will also regard you as an empty bottle without real knowledge.
I know that this is easier said than done. Sometimes it is necessary to please people, but when faced with important things or important business, if you think that your ideas are correct, you should insist that you cannot agree with others. Have your own opinion.
I used to listen to my friends and said that there is a person in the company. He said that he would say anything to anyone who asked him. As a result, all the chores in the company were spread to him. He was busy all day for these trivial things, but others He will laugh at him later. When I was listening, I thought, how did his colleagues do this? But think about it, it is estimated that these things are his own. For inappropriate work or please, or the correct opinion of the work, if you think it is correct, you should raise it, you can't be a "good person", how to master the two, it depends on the individual. The environment or character. ^^
17. Don't hide your mistakes.
We will inevitably make some mistakes in our work. Everyone has a kind of mentality, that is, they want to hide their mistakes when others don't know. But please note that if your mistakes involve your department or your boss, you must not hide, because many times the mistakes that are hidden are caused by bigger mistakes. What you are committing is a very low-level mistake. You must also inform the department head or related personnel.
When I first started working, I made this mistake. When I first started writing the plan, I changed the number of times. Because there were more versions between the boss and me, so I finally found out that the final version was sent to the boss. Some of the numbers are wrong, because I was just responsible for the business case and didn't want others to know my negligence. I secretly changed these numbers because I would print the information to them when the boss met with the boss the next day. The next day, when I handed the printed information to the boss, the boss took a few glances and just saw the numbers, he was furious. He is not angry because I have made mistakes, because everyone will inevitably make mistakes. The problem is that I want to secretly hide this mistake and do not consider the position of the boss. If he didn't find this at the time, he found it when he reported it to the boss. The boss just happened to have an impression on this data, and he couldn't justify what he said.
This matter has a great inspiration to me. I am not saying that all mistakes must be made public. If this matter does not involve others, you will not have to disclose it if you solve it yourself. But if this mistake will affect your boss or organization, be sure to inform them in advance and find a solution. Everyone will make mistakes. If you deal with your mistakes very responsibly, it will not embarrass you, but will give you extra points because the leaders feel that you are honest and responsible. But please note that you can't make another mistake if the same mistakes happen in the past.
18. Have you taken sick leave or maternity leave? You need to pay attention.
Sick leave and maternity leave are a good welfare system. Recently, there are many people who are pregnant in the company. Most people think that the legal "sick leave or maternity leave" is strictly protected by law, but you must pay attention to this. Put you in a dilemma. Of course, when you take long-term sick leave or maternity leave and breastfeeding, the company can't fire you, but if you don't handle it well during this period, you will be on the "blacklist" once you have passed this period. Because the number of employees in the company is basically fixed, once you take a few months off, during this period your work will be assigned to someone else's head or the company will have additional recruiting. After a few months, when you come back very much There may not be your location or the work you are doing.
So how can we prevent this?
During the holidays, keep in touch with the company, especially with your boss: I know it should be difficult for people who have just had a child on maternity leave, because there are too many things for you to worry about, but I still hope that you can smoke regularly. Time to contact your boss or coworker, talk about work, or have important projects. If you can, you can give some advice, but these must be your boss.
Be sure to keep up with the times and not lose your "business sense." The sense of language is very important when we learn a foreign language, but once you have been away for a long time, you have no sense of language, and your overall foreign language level will drop. The job is the same. You have to maintain that kind of "business sense" for your business. If you can, look at the relevant information at home, because once you go to work, the company or the boss will "observe" you for a while, see you. Is the ability or efficiency of work the same as before.
A colleague of my friend just had a very bad state after giving birth to a child. In fact, this is justifiable, because the child’s mental state at night is not very good, and it will definitely affect the daytime work. However, the company could not accept that she could not concentrate on her work. After one month after she took the maternity leave, the boss slowly refused to give her a job, and slowly distributed the work she had on hand to others. Finally, the colleague himself was affected. If you don't have to do anything, you will resign. This may be what the company wants. If she did not take the initiative to resign, it is estimated that after the lactation period, the company will cut her for various reasons.
19. Labor law does not protect you.
Many people may feel that with the improvement of the law, especially with the revision of the Labor Contract Law, the Labor Law will protect us, but we must not have illusions about the Labor Law. It does not protect us. Because the so-called "there are countermeasures under the policy", the personnel department of the company or the external personnel organization will cleverly bypass the law and protect the interests of the company.
As an example, if the laborer has one of the following circumstances as stipulated in Article 39 of the New Labor Contract Law, the employer may terminate the labor contract, such as “serious violation of the rules and regulations of the employer”, and the employer’s rules and regulations are very diverse. When our company used to develop a "company employee manual", we saw that the work discipline is more than 100 pieces. ^^ Almost everything you think of or unexpectedly listed, if the company really It’s easy to quit you, and it’s definitely for you in so many.
And the general company wants to cut you through some measures to let you "actively resign", for example, the boss often assigns you tasks that you can't complete, or the boss's attitude towards you is so cold that you can't stand it, your desk moves very much. A bad position, give you a short deadline to complete a task that is impossible to complete, give you a low evaluation, etc. If you have such a symptom, you should consider your career plan and plan.
20. Winning is the last word.
Having said that, perhaps it is a fear of some younger brothers and sisters who are about to enter the society or just enter the society, thinking about how the company is doing this. Maybe this is not for all companies, because I have also encountered good companies, good bosses.
But I am afraid that if I am not afraid of 10,000, I hope that everyone will prepare to protect their weapons in advance and can bypass these traps. If you have talent, you must make the most of it and let others know, and let them open a door to opportunity.
Our life is like a gamble. The workplace is a gamble. You can choose your cards and decide your own wins and losses.
It is not wise to wait for the sky to fall in the workplace. You should actively occupy the initiative, learn to "gamble" and learn to reverse the situation, because winning is the last word.
