Hi, can I ask if there's the 996 culture at EU/UK TikTok offices, for MLE specifically? I am in the final stages of couple of interview at other big tech companies and wonder if I should entertain a call for interview at TikTok. TC: $120k YoE: 3 + PhD
LMAO concerned about WLB but considering TikTok. Funny guy.
996 not really but prepare for super early and late calls if your stakeholders are scattered around the globe
No 996. Compensation seems quite align as well
of course no, but only 120k $ TC ... Seriously?
Yeah Farfetch pays peanuts. I'm at a senior IC level as well.
No 996 for Singapore. Very standard compared to other companies
Neither in the UK - at all.
No 996 in U.K. (as far as I’m aware) WLB in line or less than friends at G & FB, but can’t speak to MLE tbf. It’s probs worse than London average or EU average per market (more demanding) mostly if you have stakeholders in US (late) or Singapore/China (early). But also TC is better than market rate. For those shocked on Blind, yes, TC everywhere outside the US (and maybe Switzerland where a sandwich is $100) is incredibly low for top talent, we would all get x3 if we moved across the pond 😂 unfortunate costs of gov social benefits.
No 996 for the EU Office.
If you are an engineer, stay away. You need Mandarin to work effectively or else you will be handicapped.
Expect 10 to 12 hours 5 days per week to meet expectations in UK as RD.. Depending on team and manager, very likely you need 996 and mandarin to exceed expectations and develop professionally
Tiktok offers remote job in Europe ?
More specifically UK actually. They have a London office. I edited the post.
