Q: Is your boss trustworthy?

Are there days when you trust him or her 100% and other days when don't trust him or her at all?  Is he or she consistently one or the other?  Is it a cultural difference, a language problem, a personality difference problem or just no problem at all?

I would never want to work for an untrustworthy boss so if I did find out the boss was untrustworthy I'd leave. For me I've had plenty of bosses and I've also lead some people as well. I wouldn't want to be dishonest with an employee and I wouldn't want them to be dishonest with me. So I've had fair bosses throughout China and most of the the time there weren't too many problems or troubles that I could think of.

Without a shadow of a doubt I would say that my current boss is one of the most trustworthy men I have met in China. He's like a brother to me and treats me like family.

It's not that he's untrustworthy, but he is a "snake in the grass" in the business sense.  You have to make sure to get anything important in writing and if you ever give him an inch he'll keep taking miles until you call him out on it.

My Chineses bosses overall have been fair, if not stern, and have delivered on all of their major promises while some have wimped out on a few of the minor promises.  I have been paid on time here always; I have always had my visa on time; if the contract said "x", then the boss performed "x".  I have had two foreign DOS's here, both Australian, and one was an absolute two-faced slime, could not be trusted, played both sides against the middle, and the other one was just a letter-perfect guy who went on to better things.

I work at EET-Baotuo  and my employers are great.  After I became aware of how many horrid employers exist I can only thank God I wound up in good hands.
