Pros

- When applying for jobs outside of the company, the TikTok name takes you far, regardless of what you did in the company - Management and colleagues are lovely - Nice social events organised for employees within the team - A lot of gifts by the company regularly ie. when joining and Christmas - Given lunch allowance as a treat sometimes - Snacks and free lunch in the office

Cons

- If you are used to an English working structure, you will be in for a shock - Working every weekend, with a weekend off once a month - Working 9 hours daily, sometimes having six day working weeks - Holidays are hard to book as there is a lot of restricted periods - High KPI's and performance is micromanaged - Possibility to progress within the company, but the roles are very niche and not of value outside of the company

Pros

The job itself is relatively easy

Cons

Anyone with a positive review here was either asked to do it or isn't paying attention. TikTok is by far the worst corporate tech company you can work in. They do not care for employees, and ignorantly cite the contract even though the law can trump the contracts. They tell employees to be grateful about about things that people should take for granted, like having a weekend off. They believe they are doing us a favour when they do not completely see us as trash. Every step you take is watched and scrutinised. The managers employed are not normal and think highly of themselves. I have never seen a more lower sycophant group of people ever in my life. They also gaslight you at every turn. Don't work here if you value your braincells and mental health because, besides the cruelty, the app is ridiculous and is going to make people lose tremendous amounts of IQ points

Pros

Only Pro was working from home.

Cons

Diversity does not exist at this company even though they try to promote diversity. Work Life balance does not exist at this company. Managers are not supportive or even care to listen to the employee of challenges collaborating or working with different teams. Direct reporting managers say they are they to support the employee but on the backend tend to do nothing. As far as the team there are a lot of silos and no partnership. No direction in pillars you are supposed to support or manage.
