最近,杭州一家名为“假装上班无限公司”的办公空间引发热议。
这里的“员工”每天朝九晚六“上班”,不仅没有工资,还要倒付30元。
尽管如此,短短两个月,已有三十多人前来体验。
为什么有人愿意花钱“假装上班”?
这家公司办公环境标准:工位、会议室、直播间一应俱全,还有老板设计的公司前台。
大三学生小岳是“老员工”之一,他利用暑假每天到公司“上班”。
虽然是假装上班,但他跟随老板参加商业活动,学习企业经验。
他说:“这比做家教或实习更有收获,这600元花得值。
”30岁的朱小姐是一位创业者。
她在家做饰品网店生意,但在家效率不高,于是选择来这里“上班”。
她说:“这里安静、有氛围,工作效率高,一月150元很划算。
”还有人从“假上班”变成“真上班”。
小彭原本是来创业的,但生意失败后被创始人陈英健看中,成了他的正式员工。
创意起源:帮年轻人适应职场节奏“假装上班无限公司”的创始人陈英健是一位90后创业者,做商业地产多年。
他说,这个创意源于朋友孩子的想法:先体验上班生活、练习面试,为未来就业做好准备。
正好他有空闲的办公场地,于是合作试试。
公司提供标准办公条件,如大工位、Wi-Fi、茶水,还有时不时的免费午饭。
陈英健说:“我们不是为了赚钱,而是想为年轻人提供一个过渡空间。
”来这里的人主要有三类:想低成本创业的年轻人、正在找工作的待业者、想提前了解职场生活的大学生。
也有每天都来上班、甚至加班到晚上十点的几位“积极分子”。
陈英健表示,30元/天的收费是为了明确法律关系,“这其实不划算,但能避免责任问题。
”他说,很多年轻人在迷茫期来到这里,不仅找回了节奏,还结识了志同道合的朋友,最终找到了自己的方向。
