Pros

-Fantastic Benefits -Incredible culture; ambitious, collaborative, inquisitive, inclusive -Career Growth: Since things are moving so fast, many people often have to wear multiple hats and learn and adapt at an incredible pace. You will learn more in 3 months here than 3 years at a traditional company

Cons

-As with any fast-growing start up, incredibly long hours. 10-12 hour workdays, with weekends as catchup.

Not worth the hype

Pros

Challenging problems and collaboration with international colleagues.

Cons

Do not expect to receive guidance or direction from the management. There is no leadership; instead, TikTok has a culture of gossip between managers. There is a lack of decision-making due to fear of "making a mistake". Terrible work-life balance, expect to work 12-14 hour days. Expect to work Sundays because of timezone differences. Expect to be available at all hours of the day. Don't believe the hype.

Pros

Generally smart and fun colleagues Opportunities to make a great impact Quick to react to feedback - still start-up stage (except HR)

Cons

Health, Family, Maternity, Paternity policies need to catch-up Resonating with quite a few reviews on Glassdoor, UK HR, especially the HR operations are rude, irresponsive and irresponsible. ghosting for months is a norm, when you do get a response, it will be passing the buck to someone else in HR Ops. From senior to junior level, this pattern has been observed through out my time here. There is a lack of ownership and accountability, definitely non-existent client-serving mindset. When HR behaves as such, it makes me wonder if the employer values people and put them first.
