< p > what is the portrait of a typical foreign company worker (Chinese)? Let's not distinguish between men and women here. Suppose this person is TA and give two basic and advanced images.

A good external image, of course, includes clothes and manners. TA has a good educational background. Besides the famous schools in the country, it usually has turtles. TA has a decent official document, a portable laptop and a decent trunk for personal belongings. TA is used to buying breakfast and coffee at Starbucks, working in the high-rise office buildings of the first tier cities, staying at four star hotels and above level hotels (generally speaking, international chain hotels, such as IHG, Starwood Hotels and so on); from temperament and character, TA is confident, responsive, and insightful, and speaks directly to the main points and never wears the dirt. Basic version: TA

There are at least three English words in a sentence at work.

Advanced version: TA should go to many places, domestic and abroad, travel or personal hobbies.

Even TA should have some interest in social welfare and participate in voluntary activities in community service at NGO or club at the weekend.

< /p >


< p > is that right? Neither right nor right.

It is very complicated to elaborate.

< /p >


< p > first, there are many foreign enterprises.

From the root of the company, it is divided into American enterprises, European enterprises, Japanese enterprises, Korean enterprises and so on.

I only know something about the European and American enterprises, that is, the traditional description of foreign enterprises, so other enterprises will not comment.

From the composition of shareholders, it is divided into wholly foreign-owned enterprises and Sino foreign joint ventures.

Generally speaking, foreign enterprises all refer to the world's top 500 wholly foreign-owned enterprises, and this is what I am talking about here.

< /p >


< p > the foreign employees in manufacturing industry will be more casual on the Dressing Code, because they are all their own colleagues.

Even in recruitment, it seems to be one of the inspection standards of some party companies.

In addition, general Party B's entry threshold will be higher than that of Party A, because professional services still need some hard things, such as education, certificates and so on.

These things may not be a guarantee for your success in Party B. However, they are a piece of paper.

In Party A, the actual performance is more valued, and there is not much demand for the diploma itself.

Therefore, people generally feel that the Chinese and foreign enterprises are less than a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp", and the staff members are less than /a.

< /p >


< p > foreign enterprises are very "outside"?

In terms of age, the mainstay of a foreign company is more than 30-40 years old.

Back in the days when these people were educated, China did not really have the craze for studying abroad, foreign languages, or Western lifestyles and thinking.

Let alone look at these people in terms of values, horizons, marriage and family values.

These people's foreign languages are not so good. Many foreigners in the foreign countries do not even have the English level of four. The common words are just because they are used many times, so they are very handy. When they write English mail frequently, the grammar meaning is full of loopholes.

Although this is not everyone's impression, it is very reasonable.

What is a foreign company? In the final analysis, a foreign company is a company. The profit making institution is not a professional petty bourgeoisie.

External image, lifestyle, academic background and foreign language proficiency will not bring any profit in itself.

Not so many employees have received good foreign language education (maybe, but these people are more teachers or interpreter). There are not so many employees who need to communicate and cooperate with their foreign colleagues.

At present, most of the foreign companies are localization operations and pfer profits to the global headquarters. In this case, why should we spend more money to hire people who have been abroad and have good foreign languages to do a job that is very local but well done by employees? Foreign companies have very "outside" people, but most of them are still very Chinese in every aspect.

< /p >


< p > personal view is that the biggest manifestation of "outside" in foreign enterprises is in < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > work < /a > and communication mode.

This does not depend on the person himself, but on the organizational system and culture.

What is the fundamental thing pursued by foreign enterprises? It is the result.

It can be said that foreign companies are much more pure than state-owned enterprises.

The state-owned enterprises pursue stability as well as state machine control of key industries and employment rate.

Specifically, there are sales (whether you sell tangible or intangible things), profits, market share and so on.

Everything else, such as external relations, employee turnover rate, working environment, corporate social responsibility and so on, all revolve around profitability.

< /p >


< p > > a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > foreign enterprise < /a > the most particular word is result oriented.

Result oriented, therefore, requires competition for internal resources, close cooperation and efficiency, and therefore, all processes and cultures that are not conducive to results and efficiency need to be reduced.

Therefore, the communication and expression of foreign enterprises will be more direct and matter oriented rather than implicit and euphemistic like state-owned enterprises.

In the performance appraisal, it is not good for the organization efficiency to distinguish between the boss's words, the political game among the employees, the nepotism and so on.

Therefore, foreign enterprises are trying to minimize these obstacles to development by designing sophisticated systems.

In political science, it is often said, "what kind of people are there in the system?" the incentive and evaluation system designed by foreign companies make most of the energy of the people in the foreign enterprises at work instead of being used for intrigues.

The last blog said that foreign enterprises do not have monopoly resources like state-owned enterprises and need to deal with fierce market competition, so they need to provide relatively fair opportunities for development and mobilize their employees' enthusiasm as far as possible.

Under such a system, employees of foreign enterprises pay attention to cooperation, efficiency, initiative and fairness, which are essentially different from those of state-owned enterprises.

< /p >


< p > it is generally known that the remuneration of foreign enterprises is very competitive. This is in addition to the fact that the responsibilities of employees in foreign enterprises are often greater, that is, "one person can do two people's money and do three lives", which is also the need for foreign companies to attract talents.

What kind of people do foreign companies need? In a word, people with good performance and high sensitivity (Learning Agility) can constantly cope with complicated market changes and continue to improve themselves.

At the beginning of the occupation, which kind of person usually has such characteristics? This must be said back to the educational background, that is, the activists in the famous schools.

When you enter a prestigious school (University), you often need to go to a primary school, a junior high school, and a high school. This shows that you have a good track record.
