Friends who work in state-owned enterprises may have a deeper understanding and understand that wage arrears are a common thing.
Take myself as an example, I am in China Construction X Bureau, more than half a year has passed in 2024, but the salary is still at the level of February, and I have not seen a penny for 6 months.
In this regard, the author also collected it on the Internet: it was found that similar wage arrears in state-owned enterprises are not an isolated case, but a relatively common phenomenon, especially in Shanxi and other places, some state-owned enterprises are even facing the dilemma of layoffs, which further aggravates the anxiety and distress of employees.
Yes, state-owned enterprises are not so stable anymore, only a halo remains.
It's hard to survive until retirement!
To sum up the reasons for this, it is nothing more than the following:
1. AI emerges
Nowadays, with the emergence of new technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data, many types of work have been replaced by them, and the market competition is fierce.
Nowadays, with the vigorous development of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data, many industries are undergoing profound changes, and many traditional positions are gradually being replaced by automation.
The "old fritters" who are messing around in the central state-owned enterprises may face the problem of declining work efficiency due to age, insufficient skill updating or physical limitations, and it is a matter of time before they are eliminated.
2. Uneven distribution of resources
Central state-owned enterprises are different from the establishment of civil servants, must pass the examination before they can enter, the central state-owned enterprises often exist within the phenomenon of "related households", occupy a large number of resources, which leads to uneven distribution of resources, really capable people are difficult to get reused, over time, everyone chooses to jump ship, find another way.
3. Streamline the administration
In the past, the leaders of some central state-owned enterprises blindly pursued political achievements and over-expanded, leaving enterprises with heavy debts. Nowadays, in the face of difficulties, how can we alleviate financial pressure without layoffs? How to stop bleeding?
At present, the central state-owned enterprises are in a critical period of reform, and they are implementing streamlining institutions, reducing costs, and optimizing personnel allocation.
Even the iron rice bowl of civil servants for many years has to be broken, not to mention the central state-owned enterprises with market competition, the institutions are bloated to keep up with the pace, how can the effect of reform be reflected without layoffs?
4. Changes in social atmosphere
Nowadays, the social atmosphere is quietly changing, and the Internet industry has become the new favorite of many young people.
In particular, the post-00s young people are more inclined to pursue personalized and high-return career paths, such as emerging careers such as live streaming and selling, which not only have considerable income, but also flexible work and rest. In contrast, the "iron rice bowl" of traditional state-owned enterprises and central enterprises is no longer popular, and layoffs have become the general trend.
Therefore, there are all kinds of indications that it is almost impossible for civil engineering and engineering graduates to easily enter the central state-owned enterprises and work steadily until retirement.
