Do you all know that many big Vs have been banned these days? So it’s very important what angle this article is written from, if it’s not written well, it’s going to be a goner.
So after careful consideration, we decided to write this article from a critical perspective! Remind everyone to be wary of the sugar-coated bullets of capitalism! Don’t be confused by money, we don’t need money to contribute to society, we are the cattle and horses, we can even give up our lives, in order to realize the grand blueprint as soon as possible, we must work hard!
In the past few months, many foreign companies have laid off employees or withdrawn from the market. For Chinese employees, the most important thing is severance compensation.
In October, the rumor was about Mercedes-Benz.
Mercedes-Benz laid off N+11!
Some employees with 30 years of service received 800,000 yuan, and senior executives could receive up to 4 million yuan, only for Mercedes-Benz China Sales and Finance Department in February 2025.
And the domestic company BJ Mercedes-Benz only gave the legal N/N+1 in August of the same year, a difference of ten times…
Foreign companies are willing to buy seniority at the highest standard, while joint ventures can save as much as possible. Those who are laid off hold hundreds of thousands of yuan, take a two-month break and then look for a job, without competing for positions, the involution instantly cools down.
Many netizens believe that if all domestic companies implement the labor law in this way and treat employees as their own:
1. Sufficient compensation, no one is afraid of unemployment;
2. No involution, double rest and 8 hours naturally return;
3. Consumption rises, and enterprises also benefit.
If you really treat employees as people, layoffs are decent, and the workplace will no longer be a jungle.
Obviously, this is the sugar-coated bullet of capitalist enterprises! How can you give so much money? What should those domestic companies do if they give so much money? Isn’t this deliberately squeezing people?
The purpose is really too insidious! They are willing to give employees generous severance pay to disgust other domestic companies! There are many foreign companies with similar operating methods, such as Citibank, and any employee can get hundreds of thousands of yuan in severance pay:
Citibank China laid off 3,500 people, the layoff was announced at a meeting at 10 am, and they signed and left within 6 months, n+6, July n+3, September n+1.
And everyone, no matter when they sign, social security, provident fund and salary are all settled in September. It’s equivalent to each person getting an extra 3 months.
Going further back, Microsoft China laid off employees, n+8
Going further back, Volkswagen China’s highest compensation for layoffs is N+6, Porsche n+6, Qualcomm Shanghai layoffs in 23 years, ordinary employees n+4, senior employees with indefinite contracts n+7, and there is no three-fold cap limit.
Let’s go back to 2019, Oracle announced the closure of its China R&D center and laid off 900 people, signed in the same month, n+6, 6, signed before the middle of the next month, n+1
Then compare it with domestic private enterprises, not to mention this +5+6+7, how many layoffs have you seen that are really in accordance with N+1 compensation?
Even to say, how many private enterprises have you seen that are really going through layoffs instead of trying to find loopholes in employees to directly fire people?
Many netizens believe that foreign companies bring not only capital and technology, but also respect for labor law and contracts, and for people. This is directly reflected in wages and severance compensation.
When Foxconn moved to Zhengzhou, the factories near Zhengzhou generally increased their wages, because if you didn’t increase them at that time, you really couldn’t recruit people, and after the production capacity of Zhengzhou Foxconn moved away, the bonus was reduced again. The treatment of Taiwanese-funded enterprises is not very good among foreign companies, but just because Foxconn’s overtime hours are limited, overtime pay is definitely paid for overtime, and wages are never in arrears when leaving, most domestic manufacturing enterprises still can’t do it. To this day, the highest labor price in Zhengzhou Airport Economic Zone is still when Foxconn expanded its recruitment of workers to process for Apple.
The difference can also be seen from the severance compensation. Domestic big companies usually force transfers or hollow you out first, or directly cut you off and leave immediately. After things get big, they negotiate, and finally come up with a wave of competition agreements. Those who can give N+1 for severance compensation are all conscientious big companies. Foreign companies’ big companies’ layoffs are relatively decent, N+1 is the bottom line, and some good ones can directly give N+7 or even more.
With the current level of involution in the domestic workplace, when foreign companies leave, the workers will lose many choices. Most domestic companies cannot achieve the humanization and respect for contracts of foreign companies. Workers have no choice but to accept more intense involution. The arrival of a large number of foreign companies has greatly optimized the domestic business and workplace environment. But what about when foreign companies leave? Our domestic business environment has not become better because of this, and even the employment market will become more stressful.
It is easy to take over the market share after foreign companies leave, but it is really difficult to take over the global value, innovative genes and respect for workers behind foreign companies. Domestic companies still have a considerable gap in this regard.
In a certain sense, the layoff compensation of foreign companies has lifted the veil of domestic companies.
In the previous cognition, foreign capitalists were black-hearted and exploited workers. But this year, foreign companies laid off employees due to poor management or strategic adjustments, and the layoff compensation announced made Chinese people stunned. Domestic companies do not have such generous compensation. Ford Motor employees can get N+3+5000xN compensation. Domestic companies are ashamed to see this compensation. They say that capitalist capitalists exploit, but they are a hundred times more conscientious than the so-called entrepreneurs in China. A Japanese company in Dongguan laid off an ordinary employee who worked for five years, and the various severance compensations reached 150,000 yuan.
And this time, Canon Zhongshan’s severance compensation once again rubbed many domestic companies on the ground.
This is the compensation plan, a proper 2.5N+1!
Many employees in basic departments can get more than 400,000 yuan in severance pay.
The scene was harmonious:
Such a scene is almost impossible to see in many domestic private enterprises:
An old employee, with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan, has worked for 24 years. According to the current standard of the Labor Law, he can get 130,000 yuan in compensation, and according to the plan of Canon Zhongshan factory, he can get more than 350,000 yuan in compensation. This money can pay the down payment for a house in the local area! Especially the compensation for those technical backbones is going for 500,000 yuan! And an employee who has only worked at Canon for 3 years, with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan, can also get about 82,500 yuan in compensation, which is more than four times the legal standard of 20,000 yuan! This is not a layoff? This is simply a huge year-end bonus!
By the way, Canon also gave you an extra 5 months of employment support fund (about tens of thousands of yuan), plus an extra 10,000 yuan in subsidies! Some netizens got 630,000 yuan.
Everything is arranged properly:
And as long as you need it, the boss of Canon will personally write you a letter of recommendation to help you find a job:
When it comes to layoffs, domestic companies play hide-and-seek, rubbing against the edge of the law, and even getting physical when they are in a hurry, like a street fight, which makes people feel scared.
Canon is good, throwing out a lot of money, so thick that people are stunned, saying sugar-coated bullets, this sugar coating is so thick that it can be worn as a cotton-padded jacket, and it’s so warm that people dare not believe it.
The responsibility of the enterprise is originally a civilized word, but here, it has become a rare commodity, like an antique, it looks good, but it’s hot to use.
This is Canon’s earlier compensation plan, which is also generous enough:
Netizens were stunned:
Working in Canon’s domestic factory in Japan, there are all kinds of vacations, free Japanese training, and accommodation is also included. They pay wages on time, and the five insurances and one housing fund are fully paid! The accommodation is an 8-person room, but it’s the kind of wooden bunk bed, very strong, each dormitory has free 100 megabytes of wifi, the water and electricity bill seems to have a 100 quota per month, the dormitory area is also quiet, the food is almost free, there is a playground track basketball court downstairs of the dormitory building, and there is an indoor gymnasium next to it, with badminton and basketball courts inside, and there are billiards and table tennis tables upstairs, all of which are free, they really did not make it difficult to leave, you will not be short of a penny if you leave on your own, you get this three or four hundred thousand yuan in compensation to find a job, it is completely bringing capital into the market!
And now, when people see benefits, they first suspect whether it is a trap. After staying in the dark for a long time, the light becomes dazzling, and they are afraid of being burned – it’s not that the light is too bright, it’s that the eyes have rusted. Behind this, is that the servility has not faded, trust has long collapsed, and morality has also declined. Good intentions have to be wrapped in the skin of conspiracy to appear normal, otherwise they are fools.
The responsibility that an enterprise should have has become a luxury in China. This contrast shows the two sides of national character: one side is blatant exploitation, like cutting leeks; the other side is twisting good intentions and treating them as ulterior motives.
Netizens’ comments:
The scene before Canon’s complete closure.
The senior executives stood at the door to see off the last batch of employees.
Many employees looked back three times, looking at the senior executives who were still standing there and seeing everyone off after decades of getting along.
Although no one was supervising, and the entire factory area was empty, the sanitation uncle still conscientiously watered the last wave of water according to the specifications:
The leader still stuck to his post until the last moment, and was the last to leave:
Watch a few videos:
Many netizens commented:
This article is a criticism, I hope everyone will keep their eyes open. This is a typical malicious compensation, using the smell of money to confuse our vast working class. Everyone must not be confused by the sugar-coated bullets of capitalism! We must firmly abandon the concept of severance pay. Working is dedication, how can we talk about money for dedication? We must learn the spirit of the old scalpers, work hard, and not ask for anything in return, that’s right.
Finally, we would like to say a word of encouragement to many domestic companies: Na Mali Li!
