Extremely long house, refuse flex work from home

Pros

Fast paced, exiting, great clients, the app itself is amazing. Good pay

Cons

There is absolutely no work life balance. Management is fully aware as it’s been brought up in town hall meetings multiple times and there has been no solution. When asked if they’d consider flexible work from home since a majority of employees prefer this, they use buzz words like “synergy” to essentially say they will not consider. It’s very tough to put in long hours for a company that does very little for employee happiness and well being. They think that swag solves everything.

Pros

Perks are great, lots of merch, ‘clout’, above market pay.

Cons

Golden handcuffs are real, but not worth it when the rubber meets the road. Toxic work environment, fear-driven Motivation and bullying common in many departments. Big egos clash and the business suffers accordingly. Poor communication and understanding between US and HQ in China.

Pros

- A good knowledge of viral video and songs - snacks and food - transportation - Swags

Cons

- Don't waist your time if you want a real meaningful career ! - It's like a call center but for videos - Extremely poor salary between 22-24k for the job - This job will take your energy and your time - Poor working management (not qualified but there since the beginning apparently) - The management (supervisors) seems like they running their empire and they will get all the credit for your team good performances - The favouritism is the key of the management to rewards the wrong people - Lack opportunities - Working hours: sometimes 8am/5pm - 2pm/11pm or midnight - Working during weekend, sometimes only 1day off every 4/5 days - Difficult to have a social life - Exhausting job, executive, repetitive task - A huge turnover of the workforce - Watching thousands of video and moderate them every day, all the time - Your job is important for the App but you'll be nothing, just some human robot to help the A.I - Bonus once a year depending on your last 6 month work - Poor salary increase almost inexistent
