Pros

-Good for your CV - Networking opportunities - Good snacks That’s it. I don’t see a point why would anyone work there

Cons

-No work-life balance. You’re always supposed to be online, the volume of work is enormous because there’s shortage of people and why to hire more if they just can expand your responsibilities lol; half of the team is burnt out -Not competitive salary and no career development plan from your manager. TikTok clearly can’t afford qualified staff and internal promotions reflect favoritism -Ridiculous bonus system, conditions of which they conceal during salary negotiations. Bonus will depend on the last word of your manager -No support from managers, toxic environment, lots of attitude from incompetent people; managers are constantly gaslighting -Your manager most probably won’t know how to do elementary things and you’ll be constantly disrupted by ad hoc errands. All the team leadership in general is inexperienced

Pros

There are some truly fantastic and talented people in the company who make daily collaboration a great experience. Additionally, the insurance and overall health benefits package is quite strong and comprehensive.

Cons

The work culture is heavily driven by top-down directives from HQ, leaving little room for open discussion, transparency, or questioning management decisions. The bi-yearly rating cycle feels highly punitive and is frequently used to target individuals rather than foster growth, leading to an environment where anyone can be abruptly let go. Work-life balance is virtually non-existent due to tedious, high-volume workloads and constant alignment with overseas timelines. Furthermore, leadership instability is a constant concern; local management changes rapidly, frequently replaced by leaders from the parent company, creating an unpredictable and highly volatile work environment.
