How to Predict Black Company

Predicting Black Companies is not that easy. Here I summarize 6 practical ways to predict if a company is Black or not.

 

Hiring Often or All the Time

Needless to say, people stay longer with a good company and leave from a bad company.

 

If a company keeps hiring or hires often, that means they are consistently lack of employees. They might be a Black Company.

 

♣Many Japanese tend to stay in a company and don’t change career unless it is necessary. Thus a good company doesn’t have to hire all the time.

 

 

 

People might leave due to:

-Low Wage

-Harsh Working Environment

-Power Harassment

-Sexual Harassment

-Excessive Overtime

Check Website

 

One practical way to avoid a Black Company is to study the company that you want to apply.

 

Does the website look great?

Does the website exaggerate good points only?

If they post a picture with a few (fake) smiling people with comments such as “passionate individuals wanted” or “our company gives people dream. Wanna be a part of our team?”

!BE CAREFUL!

 

The wage structure of Black Company is usually unclear as well.

It is a good idea to ask detail when having an interview.
