Pros

The growth trajectory, and therefore, career trajectory with ByteDance/TikTok is significant. The company is building a very strong, collaborative, and open culture that truly spans across countries and continents. The work is exciting and challenging, and the leadership team is very open in communicating. The company is still going through its adolescence start-up phase, so somethings are not as smooth as they could be. The company is making a real investment in putting together the right tools and processes to streamline all the inefficiencies.

Cons

Working with global teams and across 12 time zones can be challenging. However, the flexibility of defining your own work hours helps alleviate a lot of the challenges.
