General employment rules#
The employment section at state-owned enterprises in the land of clones allows for rapid experience, bonuses, and career advancement. Employees with extensive specialized knowledge receive high bonuses, and clones can rise from simple laborers to managers.
Employment and combination#
State-owned enterprises offer a variety of jobs, some even accessible to vagrants. Employment requirements may include tools, relevant education, minimum qualifications (experience, specialized knowledge), and resources that are expended during the hiring process. Jobs at clone enterprises can be found in the “State-owned Enterprises” section (Jobs → “State-owned Enterprises”). Hovering over a position reveals the candidate requirements.
Some positions are replaceable: a less qualified employee can be replaced by a candidate with a higher level of knowledge. Displacement is only possible for certain positions, but a clone can be fired for other reasons, such as lack of tools or stamina, or a mismatch in stats. Missing stats can be obtained through exchange, but specialized knowledge cannot be exchanged back. Increasing the “Intent” stat increases the level of almost all specialized knowledge.
Tools are purchased through the tool icon or in the Tool Shop ( Trading). You can set up automatic purchases when their durability is depleted. When working at multiple businesses with the same tool, its durability is consumed proportionally to the number of businesses (for example, a porter at the fair and the transport company loses 2 durability points per day).
The device button turns blue if there’s free space and the clone meets the requirements. Work at state-owned enterprises can be combined with other jobs, except for work at the Meat Factory. Only one position can be held at a given enterprise, unless regulations stipulate otherwise. Work at state-owned enterprises cannot be combined with private enterprises, housing construction, or gold mining in settlements.
Career growth#
Promotion depends on the level of specialized knowledge or other characteristics, most often judgment. The higher the knowledge and characteristics, the greater the chance of achieving a high position and earning a higher income.
Each state enterprise expends one unit of stamina per day, sometimes more—this is specified in the rules of each enterprise. Monitor your stamina and the condition of your tools. If a clone no longer meets the requirements, they will not receive salary or experience, but will instead receive reprimands. Three reprimands in a row means dismissal. Once their stamina or tool is restored, the clone can be reemployed.
Salary, experience and seniority#
Compensation includes salary, bonuses, and experience. Experience can be exchanged for prudence, charisma, or specialized knowledge. If a clone works at multiple companies, they receive pay and experience for all positions. The “Employment History” section displays employment history, promotions, reasons for dismissals, and reprimands. Records can be filtered by date and type, and information can be generated for individual clones or the entire account.
Employee statistics#
The “Rating” tab for each company displays the total salary and daily bonus figures for employees with the highest and lowest stats. If a clone is employed, their stats are also displayed, allowing you to estimate potential income based on the clone’s stats.
