About
TikTok, the popular short-form video platform, has conducted a new round of layoffs this week, specifically targeting employees within its human-resources team focused on talent acquisition and recruiting. The exact number of affected employees remains unclear, as the company, a private entity under parent ByteDance, does not publicly disclose such figures. The layoffs were confirmed on Wednesday, January 18, 2023, amidst a broader wave of job cuts across the tech industry, including major players like Amazon and Google. This move appears to be part of ongoing restructuring efforts, following previous workforce reductions in 2022 within its advertising and Russian operations. While TikTok has thousands of global job openings and plans for expansion, these layoffs reflect a strategic adjustment in its hiring approach during a period of economic uncertainty and industry-wide recalibration.
