      Pros

      Work visibility was high due to its nature. Fast moving company with enough opportunities for personal growth.

      Cons

      Internal competition and politics created an overall poor working environment for mental and physical well-being, from my own experience. It’s likely better if you only report to the US (TikTok). Questionable integrity. Not people friendly: It’s missing the humanly touch regarding employee support and perks. Another representation of this is their interview process, which is the least transparent based on my experiences and doesn’t make you feel welcome or valued from the get-go. A few friends of mine also joined the company during different times, and they all left due to the same or similar frustrations.

      Pros

      - Full of talented team members - Projects are really interesting to work on, I look forward to work every day - Awesome benefit, awesome benefit, awesome benefit: important things should be mentioned 3 times

      Cons

      Tons of things to do. Not that anyone will aggressively push you, but because everyone is moving fast, it's easy to feel lagged behind. Work schedule can be really crazy due to the need of working with teams in Asia.
