Pros

The positive were the WFH allowance and team Building allowance.

Cons

I have never worked in a worse environment. The company completely lack structure. Communication is really bad, there is no accountability, processes are unclear, there is no transparency, etc. The company tricks people in the hiring process. Most people in high positions have no skills but only got to such a high level from joining the company on its early days. The performance review system is a joke where threats and blackmail are the norm. This place is a disgrace, I don’t even understand how some of the things happening there have not been reported yet to the medias or in court.

Pros

I've worked at other companies (Silicon Valley software company, media entertainment in LA, smartphone company, semiconductor company). These things set TikTok and ByteDance apart from other companies: 1. Tremendous growth potential - fastest company in history to reach $17B and $35B revenue, fastest mobile app to reach 2B downloads, just getting started. 2. Opportunity to work on what you want - unlike older companies where you are pigeon-holed in a role, TikTok is only 2 years old, and you get a lot of white space to work on what you want and shape the future of the company. 3. Amazing people - super sharp, humble, friendly, hard working, supportive. 4. Culture: the teams that I know do not work 996, contrary to a couple reports out there. I work hard M-Th (8-10 hours per day), then stop working on Friday at 2, 3 or 4pm. Only worked 1 weekend in last 10 months because of an urgent project. - ByteStyles: Be Open & Humble, Be Grounded & Courageous, Always Day 1, Aim for the Highest. 5. Better salary than other companies 6. Lots of TikTok swag! 7. Exciting for a company to work with content creators and shaping culture and music.

Cons

-fast-paced and constantly changing, but other tech companies are like that.
