People with toxic personalities in a company with poor management

Quality Assurance • Current Employee

Dublin, Dublin, Ireland

Pros: It seems that none of the social media platforms have jobs available, so this is the only company currently hiring.

Cons: One of the worst companies I've ever worked for hired unprofessional employees who made professional employees struggle. This was in addition to poor management and, of course, a toxic environment caused by a lack of professionalism. This company is a joke, with no clear guidelines or policies, no workers' rights, and no mind to comprehend the logic around everyone wanting to be near the team lead for support. There was no respect for privacy or personal opinions, and it was mandatory to work three days from an awful office.

Great Colleagues, Zero Integrity

Quality Assurance • Current Employee

Dublin, Dublin, Ireland

Pros: Colleagues are great, nothing else.

Cons: Management uses lip service, with no integrity. Performance reviews are a joke; the result is known before the process is completed. Management downgrades performance reviews for reasons known only to themselves. Policies for content moderation are, at best, vague and very badly written. There are multiple interpretations and overlaps, confusing to everyone. Policies are continually changing and affect the quality of work being done. There is nothing nice about working for TikTok.
