Shopee, operator of the largest ecommerce platform in South-East Asia, has cancelled a number of employment offers last minute, which gained attention in China when one worker posted his plight on WeChat after arriving in Singapore.
“I landed with my wife and dog and was told my offer (from Shopee) was cancelled while I was still at the airport,” a user going by “Lin Ge goes to Nanyang” wrote on his official WeChat account over the weekend.
