TikTok reviews

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.

Where do I start? - Absolutely no strategy around growth which leads to arbitrary and unattainable goals. Followed by extreme employee burnout. - You will be online all day, everyday. While there isn’t a written expectation of this, employees are so overworked that it’s not unusual to get a ping from a coworker in a local time zone at 2am. The structure for approvals and process forces people to always be online if not the work will stop. And you cannot be the one causing that - even if you’re on vacation. The expectation is to be online should any urgent requests or approvals come through. - TikTok’s culture is centered around selling you on the opportunity of working for the biggest platform and tech company in the world. With that comes a culture of gaslighting and dismissing employee concerns and general unhappiness. - Compensation is not competitive. Normal increases are 3% which happen can happen anywhere from 12-18 months of working there with no stock refreshes. Zero growth opportunities in terms of leveling. If you want to get promoted to higher level you have to present your case to a panel.
