Pros

Lots of opportunity to lead new initiatives Brilliant people who work there “Clout” for working at TikTok

Cons

Constant fire drills Less than average tech pay Terrible work life balance Stressed leadership = bad leadership Constant reorgs No prioritization Little to no onboarding trainings Toxic, competitive environment. Employees always at each other’s necks. Unclear team/company OKRs Terrible performance review process and systems Politics are like walking on eggshells Leadership doesn’t listen when their teams are struggling True DEI goals are impossible with China’s leadership Mandatory RTO

Pros

Exciting platform to work on

Cons

-No respect for American holidays -Lack of understanding that they will continue to lose top talent and not be able to hire new top talent unless they can get over themselves and offer full remote work. Directors and leads posting in team chats "look at me in the office" photos is incredibly transparent and tone deaf. We want time with our loved ones, not a pointless commute just to play the "look at me I'm at my desk so I must be working hard" optics game. -Allows directors to publicly call out people's work in a negative way in sales. -Not ambitious quotas, psychotic quotas. When we didn't make quota, they more than doubled it. I've never seen that at any other org and I've been at multiple tech companies. -Micromanagement from the director level.
