A good majority of Nigerian University Graduates have a serious problem. There is this disgusting entitlement mentality they suffer, that not only prevents them from contributing their best to their organization, but makes them demand gratification for their degree instead of their input to the organization. That mentality that says "I'm a graduate so I ought to earn so so and so amount notwithstanding how I do my work".

I mean, a company is gives you the opportunity to have breakfast in the canteen or take a lunch break and you are here complaining. Or do they think the Chinese would produce all the goods they are selling globally if not for their positive work ethic??

1. They serve breakfast. Wow.

2. The work time for Non-Chinese is the same as Chinese.. Have you seen a Chinese Man working before. They work like machines.

3. They said its not allowed to have a meal in the kitchen at work times ~ meaning you can go out and have your 1hour break lunch or whatever, without staying above that time.

Is there suppose to be an issue because I ain't seeing any?


Good comment

Nigerians were castigating the Non-chinese staff yesterday on Twitter. It became a big issue

No issue

I am a staff of Huawei and to be fair enough , I can conveniently say that Huawei work conditions are not as bad as they are being portrayed except maybe for outsourced staff. For me, the only issue is that of heavy work load and job insecurity.

I'm still looking for the issue in this. Considering the way those Chinese firms treat their Nigerian staff like slaves donkeys, this arrangement looks pretty ok to me.

For those who are not aware, someone raised an issue on Twitter with regards to the working condition at Huawei, see the tweet pic below.



So I asked a friend who has been working there for some time now to verify these claims and she gave me a breakdown of what has been happening.

ISSUE ONE: THE OFFICIAL WORKING HOURS

According to her, Huawei held a survey where they made employees choose which working hours they'd prefer, the majority of Nigerians selected 8:00 am to 5 pm while the Chinese counterpart chose 8:30 to 5:30 pm. She claims Huawei did this to help deal with the traffic issues.

ISSUE TWO: DINING HOURS

Apparently, Huawei gives a 1-hour break in between work hours but some employees violate their break period hence the reason it was raised in the mail.

See a full mail addressed to all workers.




Now that we have heard the other side of the story, what do you think?

What exactly is your point ?

You want fried egg ?

If you have been following twitter you'd know that this created an issue. Some people felt Huawei are being racist for not allowing Chinese staff resume with Non chinese staff. others felt Huawei wasn't giving them breaks. The picture looked wrong without me finding the info from a friend

I choose to doubt this.

Such a seemingly plain communication and the content is not all there is to harsh working conditions in such typical companies in Nigeria.

If anything, this discourse must start with exposing/xraying in public all that is inhume in Huawei.

Sad as it sounds, right from times past, Huawei in Nigeria has been synonymous with inhumane working conditions, as is typical of comapnies owned by foreigners, thanks to the watchful eyes of our govt and labour orgs that expressly permit all kinds.

This said, it does not change fsct that there are other foreign companies that do their things differently, giving their staff lot more easy working conditions.

My humble take.
Re: The Working Condition At Huawei Nigeria: Reason Behind #HuaweiNigeria On Twitter by stagger: 10:31pm On Dec 04, 2015
The fact is that the work ethic of a typical Chinese or Indian worker is very strong. We as Nigerians do not come close.

Secondly, ask any Chinese employer of labour in Africa. They are appalled at the number of religious breaks we take. They cannot understand why someone will be in church on Sunday, Midweek service on Wed, and prayer meeting another day, n or can they comprehend the 5 times daily prayer breaks by our muslim brothers. Yet the Nigerian economy stinks to the highest heavens of corruption, mismanagement and every kind of human vice. Imagine the owner of a news organization who is always doing one thanksgiving in church or another telling the world he received 2.1bn from the former NSA as media campaigns for PDP, as if the National Security Agency is now the PDP campaign organization. The Chinese cannot tolerate such and that is why they have Operation Fox Trot hunting fugitives of justice in more than 100 countries to the point where many are returning voluntarily to face justice.

And things are actually working in China. They produce 1,200,000 MW of electricity, (1.2 million MW), compared to Nigeria still struggling to cross the 4,500MW threshold since time immemorial.

That is why the Chinese employers of labour have had to draw up rules to stop the Nigerian employees corrupting their setup with our ways.

Nothing wrong here.

The complaint was that some staff are still busy having breakfast in the lunch room after start of work. That is not ethical and would be frowned upon in any organization. Irrespective of where you come from.

I know a lot about Huawei, I'm friends with the CTO who is Chinese. The company is a fantastic place to work
The Chinese workers work round the clock, Saturdays and Sundays included. I say this because I've been there on weekends and trust me, those guys work like machines.
I was very surprised but impressed at their level of commitment to work and the company.

Please Huawei is one of the best technology companies in this country.
