Pros

Nice offices Free snacks Nothing more to say

Cons

Interview: all lie!!, They promise to give you 2 weekends off per month, but in the end, they just give you one weekend off per month! No social life. You have to work on a bank holiday, but Tik Tok said that the benefit to working on bank holidays is to request holiday whenever you want, lie!!!, because when you want it to request the holidays, there are no days available, because other people want holidays the same day as you!. You can't swap shifts with other colleagues, basically, you need to work when they want, at the time when Tuk Tok wants. Lack of opportunities: you will do 1000 videos every day, very monotonous job, not learning skills at all, if you are in this department is very difficult to move into a different department, all you see is people dancing every day, every 2 minutes. Management: poor management and even more if you have a bad team leader who only focuses on numbers 98% accuracy. (to choose the right policy for the video). Contract rights: The contract says you are under 6 months probation period, but they don't respect this time.

Pros

Colleagues are nice and working from home

Cons

Low pay, no transparency, terrible shifts. You do the same every single day - watch tik tok videos non stop. The review policy changes almost daily and the calibration between trainers, advisors is terrible. Bonus system is ridiculous! No transparency on how bonuses are calculated. Salary is very low for a company pretending to be as successful as TikTok. You are allowed to finish work even if you reach your daily target. No shift swaps are allowed between colleagues. You cannot take AL anytime you want. Forget about planning any trips as people in charge of the schedule announce it month by month and due to annual reviews in August and December you are not allowed to take any days off then. Decisions are made without taking peoples opinion. No feedbacks are ever taken into consideration. I had high expectations, but to this point got very disappointed by everything.

Pros

You get to say you work in big tech.

Cons

There’s no such thing as work life balance here. You will work past 6 pm everyday and sometimes weekends. There’s no flexibility with work locations even with mandatory WFH. I would avoid at all costs. Leadership is extremely out of touch and VERY untransparent.
