Pei Qian blinked, completely dumbfounded.
What the hell?
A huge success?
What's more, the new recruitment examination had recruited a large number of middle-level backbones. Had it really optimized the company's personnel structure?
Some people were even willing to take a pay cut to join Tengda?
That wasn't right. This was different from the script he had expected!
At first, Pei Qian had thought that too many people had participated in the previous recruitment examination. Those who were recruited would definitely be top students, test gods, or real talents. Now that there was a sudden attack and a new recruitment examination, everyone would not have time to prepare. Surely, a few slackers would be recruited, right?
Yet, the registration was so popular!
There were too many people, and the examination rules were very strict. Thus, only those who were selected were truly talented.
Pei Qian remained silent for a moment and asked, "Then … what do you think their working attitude is like?"
If they were here for the benefits and had a lazy attitude, then it would be acceptable.
Wu Bin raised his thumb. "They're definitely good. There's no doubt about it!
"Some people are willing to take a pay cut to join Tengda. It looks like they're here for the benefits. However, there are two reasons that fill them with motivation!
"First of all, they must be hardworking to be able to become backbones in other companies. It wasn't easy for them to enter Tengda. Such working habits would naturally continue.
"Second, the reduction in working hours would force them to improve their work efficiency and adapt to Tengda's work style. That's because they have rich work experience. That's why they take over jobs much faster than graduates and newcomers!
"For example, the employees that Upwind Logistics poached from Shengyun Corporation are very familiar with all kinds of work. After using the Tengda spirit to change their thinking, they can shine. Our company's expansion speed will definitely increase!"
Pei Qian: "…"
Something was wrong. The more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong!
Could the recruitment examination and targeted poaching have recruited another group of hardworking people?
Hmm … have more confidence. Looking at the current situation, it was inevitable that more hardworking people would be recruited.
Where's my Tengda spirit test? Quickly pull it up!
No, no, a Tengda spirit test alone is not enough. I have to think of other ways.
I can't let this new batch of middle-level backbones ruin the company's atmosphere!
Where should I start then …
Work flow!
Once the workflow was restricted, these people wouldn't be able to do anything.
In fact, Pei Qian had already tried many similar things before. For example, he had limited the amount of overtime, had his mouse run all over the place after work, and sent internal letters to encourage everyone to rest and have more fun.
However, it seemed to be a little unsystematic and could not be carried out in all aspects of the work.
Now, as more and more people were being recruited, many of the old employees who had been tormented by other companies had joined. The pressure was even greater, and he had to think of other ways.
All of a sudden, Pei Qian had an idea.
What is most closely related to workflow? Of course, it was the company's internal office chat software!
At the moment, Tengda was using a very mainstream office software called FXT. Compared to social chat software, this kind of office software was more inclined to communicate at work, so it was more convenient to deal with work.
For example, it did not provide an invisibility option, so one could clearly see the contact's online status, see the company's organizational structure, and find the corresponding personnel according to the department groups. Everyone's real name could be seen, and all contact information including phone number and email could be seen. It could force pop-up reminders, send notification messages, and clearly see if the other party had read the message, and so on.
It could be said that this software was mainly used to improve the efficiency of communication at work. It basically did not consider the privacy protection of conventional social chat software or the use experience of ordinary users.
After all, in work, an ordinary employee's experience and work efficiency often contradicted each other.
Once this software was built on the company's intranet, the technical staff could check all chat records and monitor the employees' private complaints or complaints.
Of course, because of the company's characteristics, Tengda's use of this software would definitely be different from other companies. For example, all departments tacitly agreed not to force pop-up reminders during non-working hours.
However, this was a conventional rule after all. Not all departments would strictly abide by it. Moreover, sometimes during non-working hours, department heads might also use the phone or other commonly used social chat software to issue tasks. They might not always use FXT to complete work arrangements.
Pei Qian suddenly realized that he had to change this!
This office chat software obviously could not meet his needs. It was completely incompatible with the Tengda spirit.
At the beginning, Tengda's company structure was quite simple. FXT was only an internal chat software. Even if it did not conform to the Tengda spirit, it would not cause too serious consequences.
However, the situation was different now. In the future, Tengda's employee numbers would soar again. If they could not plan the work flow and system as soon as possible, the situation would definitely become more and more serious.
This matter could not be underestimated!
Tengda also had the development ability. The TPDb website could develop such internal chat software. What's more, there was a ready-made framework that could be used. Pei Qian could leave this task to Ma Yiqun.
At that thought, Pei Qian immediately called Ma Yiqun and asked him to come over. He asked him to complete this task with Wu Bin, who represented the HR department.
The headquarters of TPDb website and Zhongdian Chinese Network were in the same building. Thus, Ma Yiqun arrived very quickly.
Pei Qian deliberated for a moment and said, "I'll give you a new task. Develop Tengda's own internal office chat software.
"FXT's functions are not complete. It seriously does not conform to the Tengda spirit. As more and more new employees join Tengda, we have to develop Tengda's own internal office chat software."
Ma Yiqun and Wu Bin nodded, feeling that Boss Pei made sense.
FXT was indeed a little outdated. It was indeed necessary to develop an internal office chat software for Tengda's special situation.
"Then … Boss Pei, can we just make this software like normal office software? Perfect the functions that FXT does not have? "Ma Yiqun asked.
Pei Qian shook his head. "Of course, it's not that simple!
"I think the biggest problem with FXT's office chat software is that it is not worthy of its position at all. That is because it blurs the boundaries between office and personal life!
"The so-called office software sends messages frequently during non-working hours. What kind of office software is that?
"In my opinion, the Tengda internal office chat software that we want to make should have the following characteristics.
"First, we have to strictly differentiate and restrict the functions of the software during working hours and off-duty hours. It should be used normally during working hours, and no notifications should pop up during non-working hours. There should be no sound or vibration prompts when sending messages. In emergencies, we can dial voice, but we have to apply for overtime first. What's more, there should be a limit to the number of times a month.
"Departments that send too many messages during off-duty hours must be criticized because the person-in-charge of the department is not competent enough!
"Second, all work must be transmitted through this chat system and email. Employees can refuse to carry out any work that is not recorded in this software.
"Third, we have to make a clock in list. Employees can clock in when they go to and from work. Those who clock in closest to the standard working hours will be rewarded. Those who arrive early and leave late mean that their work efficiency is low. The person-in-charge of the department must pay attention and advise them!
"Fourth, we have to strictly regulate the process. Send a message if it is not urgent or important. Communicate face-to-face for important and urgent matters and then send a message. Send an email if it is not urgent and then send a message. Hold a video conference for urgent and unimportant matters and then send a message.
"All in all, the person-in-charge must regulate his own work flow and be clear about the levels of various tasks. Any problems caused by unclear orders have nothing to do with the employees.
"Fifth, open an anonymous forum. Just like the Tengda Spirit test, only I can check the identity of the anonymous person. No one else can. Allow everyone to post information on the forum anonymously and discuss the mistakes and shortcomings of the company.
"That's about it. I'll add more when I think of new content."
Pei Qian's goal was very simple. First, he had to require everyone to use this software to transmit work content. Second, he had to strictly monitor and put an end to sending messages to arrange work on days off!
That was because some functions were not very complete when using FXT. Thus, the person-in-charge of the department simply made phone calls or sent messages through other chat software. That created a lot of difficulties for supervision.
How many people were secretly working overtime on weekends? It was a little hard to count.
However, after changing to this software, all the person-in-charge had to use it to issue tasks. Employees had the right to refuse to carry out tasks if they did not.
That way, wouldn't it be obvious which department was secretly working overtime and which department always arrived early and left late?
As for the checkpoint leaderboard and the anonymous forum, these were all naturally derived functions.
Wu Bin and Ma Yiqun were both stunned when they heard that.
Boss Pei said that FXT's functions were not complete. That was how it was!
Although Boss Pei's requirements sounded a little strange at first, on further thought, they did seem to be more similar to Tengda's style.
Was it strange for a company where the mouse was running all over the place after work to freeze 90% of its functions on days off?
It did not seem strange. Instead, it seemed very reasonable!
