TikTok reviews

1. Please note that this is a company led by Chinese! In some requirements review meetings, they even conducted the meeting directly in Mandarin. So if you don't understand Mandarin, don't go. 2. The transparency of information is very poor. For example, the appointment of the leadership is highly opaque, and these Chinese leaders are not interested in achieving transparency. Many suggestions have been given, but no improvements have been made. This may be a deeply ingrained cultural habit. 3. Again, please note that it is difficult to get promoted if you are not Chinese. They basically transfer leaders from Bytedance in China to the United States, so never expect to advance in your career. 4.You need to adapt to having meetings with Chinese colleagues at night.

This company is eating through moderators with the amount of policies and type of content you will be exposed to. We all know the internet is full of terrible stuff, so of course content moderation means you will be exposed to certain overwhelming videos or images. You might think once I see someone abuse an animal I can quickly click a button and *poof* it disappears. Nope. I have to keep watching until the video ends in case there are other violations or my accuracy will suffer a hit. But wait, that’s not all. They started a program to try to measure our accuracy across the board by injecting a certain number of cases that we will all see. That way they can measure if we all see the same videos, how differently did we all tag the same scenario. This sounds great, right? Sadly you’d be wrong because they keep injecting older cases of graphic suicides, animals in blenders, mutilation of humans or animals. That’s right, they are force feeding us additional graphic content, and we are being graded on how well we closely watched it. Suggestions have been made to instead write up descriptions instead of forcing us to see it so we can still be tested on accuracy but not overly exposed. They said “you signed up for this.” They’ve continued to increase the amount of days we have to work in the office, which is the opposite of what most professionals suggest leads to employee happiness and retention. You will see an animal abused, you will see a child abused, you will see decapitation. It’s the job and it’s worsened by the demands for AHT/QA/UR. I don’t care how many pizza parties you throw, you can undo PTSD.
