On October 15, a number of netizens broke the news that Nezha Automobile did not pay its September wages on time, which attracted attention. It is reported that the payday of Nezha Automobile is the 15th of each month. On the morning of the 16th, the Netcom Agency asked Nezha Automobile insiders for verification, and the other party said that there was indeed no salary paid yesterday (October 15).
However, subsequently, on the arrears of wages, Nezha Automobile responded that the company's front-line employees and factory workers were paid on time. Recently, the company's middle and senior management are adjusting the salary structure, and only a few salaries are slightly slower.
However, Nezha Automobile insiders denied the statement, and the other party said that he was not a middle-level or above employee, including himself and his colleagues, who had not received their September salary.
In fact, this is not the first time that Nezha Automobile has been caught in a wage arrears scandal. In February this year, Nezha Automobile was exposed to the postponement of the payment of year-end bonuses, and the payment of provident funds and wages was also postponed. At that time, Gaohe Automobile was in trouble due to the suspension of production, so Nezha Automobile CEO Daniel Zhang also quickly posted a response in person, trying to calm the turmoil. Daniel Zhang said in response: "Since 16 years, we have never cashed out employees' salaries/bonuses/social security one day later. Last year, life was so difficult, and I didn't think about salary cuts and layoffs, maybe a small number of employees in the company are not used to living a hard life, it seems that it is necessary to pass the cold to everyone. ”
In fact, the current life of Nezha Automobile is indeed not easy. According to the latest sales data, Nezha Automobile delivered 10,118 vehicles in September, a slight decline from the previous month, but a sharp decline of 23.41% compared with the same period last year. From January to September this year, the cumulative sales of Nezha Automobile were 85,908 units. Nezha Automobile's domestic sales target for 2024 is 200,000 units, and there are only two and a half months left in the year, and this goal has basically been achieved.
In 2022, Nezha Automobile will become the annual sales champion of new forces with an annual sales volume of 152,000 units, but in 2023, Nezha will deliver 127,500 new cars throughout the year, a year-on-year decrease of 16.16%, and become the only head new force with negative sales growth that year.
Factors such as the chaotic pace of switching between new and old models and the excessively high pricing have become the reasons for slowing down the development of Nezha Automobile. Nezha Automobile's latest Nezha L released in 2024, although it reflects a new look after adjustment in terms of marketing and price, is still not optimistic about whether Nezha Auto can return to growth.
We will also keep an eye on the development of Nezha Automobile.
