What kind of company is Bidia? Why do so many people leave their jobs?

BYD's workers in Changsha quit their jobs and submitted their resignation letters, saying that they never wanted to be a cow or a horse for BYD again, but they were all rejected by BYD. According to Cailian, BYD directly rejected some people's applications for resignation on the grounds that "the number of resignations this month is full", but it was refuted by BYD officials. Industry insiders speculate that in fact, BYD is mainly worried that too many people will leave their jobs and affect factory production. Car factories are all assembly lines. If a large number of people leave at once and no new people make up for it in time, the production line will break down. Moreover, the resignation mood is very infectious. If more people leave, the rest will worry there. If there is too much negative energy in the working environment, the production efficiency will be reduced. In order to avoid this kind of thing, BYD can only keep people by force.

Then why did the workers of BYD in Changsha suddenly run away collectively? The reason is naturally because of the poor treatment. According to the report of Cailian, the basic wages paid by BYD to Changsha workers are all in accordance with the minimum wage standard stipulated by the government, which is less than 2,000 yuan a month, and the average hourly wage just exceeds 12 yuan. What is this concept? In the Kenyan sweatshop where OpenAI was accused some time ago, the hourly wage of workers was almost two dollars. BYD treats its Changsha employees like sweatshops in Africa.

Because the basic salary is too low and the normal commute is not enough for daily expenses, workers can only rely on overtime to increase their income. Overtime per day 1.5 times, and it can be doubled and tripled on weekends and holidays. Overtime pay has become the main source of income for BYD workers. Similar systems actually exist widely in major domestic electronics factories, including Foxconn, and BYD, who was born in the electronics factory, is still using this criticized salary system, although it has become the world's number one new energy vehicle factory in sales. In order to make a living, workers often have no choice but to accept and even take the initiative to ask for overtime.

In the past, when the production line was running at high load, everyone could work overtime, at least with a little more money, so they always lived a peaceful life. However, the BYD factory in Changsha recently encountered a new situation, which is the decline in production capacity. When the production capacity drops, there will be less overtime per capita, which means less money every month. Many workers will be three or four thousand a month, less than half of the first-line workers in Tesla next door. Coupled with BYD's almost strict fine system, leave was deducted twice and absenteeism was deducted three times. Many people weigh it and decide that it is better to leave quickly.

Some people may ask, isn't BYD the number one seller in the world? Why did its production capacity suddenly drop? In fact, if you count, BYD currently has 65,438+00 production bases in China, with an annual planned total production capacity of 4 million vehicles. According to BYD's declaration at the Shanghai Auto Show a few days ago, BYD's sales target this year is 3 million vehicles. This extra 6,543,800+0,000 vehicles indicates a decline in production capacity.

Can BYD stop the tide of resignation by improving the treatment of workers? The answer is actually yes. BYD's net profit last year was as high as 65.438+0.66 billion, a year-on-year surge of over 400%. In the first quarter of this year, the net profit also exceeded 4 billion, which continued to skyrocket by over 400% year-on-year. Some insiders estimate that as long as BYD's monthly sales can reach more than 200,000 vehicles, this year's net profit will be more than 20 billion. BYD's production line now has about 440,000 workers, and the monthly salary increase of 1 will increase the annual cost by more than 5 billion points. Needless to say, the price of raw material lithium carbonate this year has dropped to 1/3 of last year's peak. BYD itself is an expert in battery manufacturing, and its cost and profit advantages are improving in an all-round way. According to the current performance forecast, BYD's net profit this year is the worst, even if all employees raise their salaries, at least it can be tied with last year.

BYD can sit on the throne of a new energy brother, and front-line workers have contributed. Is it too much to give everyone a raise? I hope BYD's life is getting better and better, and I hope BYD's workers are getting better and better.
